Ontario Highway Traffic Act

I had the same issue with a fail to stop read light ticket, the JP did not notice the error and I had to appeal. That having been said the appeal process, at least for me, went relatively smoothly and the applet Judge entered an acquittal in my case.

It is hard to say what happened, maybe the courts or the police service lost your paperwork somewhere along the way. Either way as long as MTO says your licence is valid you are probably OK on that front, and if you've been stopped for speeding since then, I'm guessing there is no warrant out for your arrest or the cops who pulled you over would ...

Ok, let's say for "argument's sake", that there is a discretion. Any idea who I could contact to plead my case to at the MTO. Or would it be any office?

Unfortunately there is nobody to call at MTO because nobody there has the power to rescind the suspension. The way to ask for leniency would have been to plead not guilty to the charge and then ...

Here is a link to the City of Toronto's website that details how they collect unpaid fines.

I took a look at the cities website and could not see it either. You might be able to find it somewhere in the public library system or you may have to get a copy from the city clerks office.

I think the curved yellow line is there simply to keep people from driving too close to the last parking space in the row. As for the parking ticket, parking enforcement can come on to private property without the owners permission to enforce handicapped space and fire route violations. That having been said it is unusual for them to proactively ...

I think your best bet is to pick option 3 on the back of your ticket and request a trial. Once you have received a court date you can file a request disclosure, this should get you a copy of the video as well as the officers notes and any other evidence they have against you. This link has a good little primer on how to go about requesting ...

The maximum penalty you could face would be a $5000 fine and 6 months in jail, although I doubt they will be that hard on you considering this is a first offence and you have already taken steps to resolve the issues that lead to your suspension. Your licence will also be suspended for an additional 6 months. When you do get your licence back you ...

If you don't get a court date after 3-6 months I would check with them to make sure your notice of trial did not get lost in the mail. If the notice does some how get lost in the mail you could miss your court date and be found guilty by default. If that happens you would have to apply to have your case reopened which means more trips to the court ...

Hi Everybody,

I just wanted to let you all know that I had my day in court today and, thanks in no small part to the helpful people on this board, I won my case. Things went very smoothly, I showed up about 20mins before court was to start, the crown came over and asked me if I was contesting my own case, I said yes and other than that the crown ...

Well my court date is on Monday, I think I have a pretty good grip on what I need to do and I think my case is actually pretty straight forward. I've got 3 copies of my case law and three copies of the fine scheduled showing that my ticket has an incorrect set fine. Tomorrow I'm going to make some last minute notes to myself so I don't forget what ...

I'm not sure about the mall kiosks, but you can order them on-line through the Ministry's website. You have to pay a user fee, but then the system will e-mail you a copy of your abstract.

I would do as the others have suggested, get disclosure and see what the officer's notes say. Once you have his notes you will be able to better judge what kind of defense you might have. If you have time do a case law search as well and see if there are any court decisions regarding the use of S.182 (2) for parking offences. I don't know if their ...

The by-law that you were charged under is Ajax TRAFFIC BY-LAW 5-2004 section 9.1 (o) which reads: "No Person shall on any Highway Park any Vehicle between the hours of 3:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m."
-So to answer your question about whether you can be charged with this offence on an unincorporated road we have to look at section 1.1 of the by-law to see ...

The law says:

Helmet requirement
(2) No person shall ride on, drive or operate a power-assisted bicycle on a highway unless the person is wearing a helmet as required by subsection 104 (1) or (2.1). 2009, c. 5, s. 35.

So the question then becomes does walking an e-bike down the street constitute operating a power-assisted bicycle. I don't know ...
