Ontario Highway Traffic Act

Congrats! Good on you for doing your homework

The paralegal I used charged me $250 plus tax to handle my red light ticket. Another one quoted me $350 + tax. It might cost you more depending on the number of tickets you want to fight.

You most likely can plea guilty and get no demerit points, but like Stanton says, it really doesn't make any difference to your insurance premiums. For example ...

Do a search, there are plenty of topics discussing this on this forum, and around the internet.

The form you want to file is an 11b, however there are certain 'demands' that need to be met for it to be filed successfully. If you do a search for "filing a 11b form in ontario'" or something similar, you should get the info you are looking for.

What ...

Don't plead guilty, cause if you plead guilty, then you have to pay the fine, take the demerit points, and get the insurance hike.

You've just been handed the winning ticket that most people hope for! lol so don't plead guilty! That'd be like winning the lottery and throwing the ticket away!

If your unfamiliar with how to file an 11b, or don't ...

I've heard of people getting dinged for this, then taking the new sticker to court and getting off the charge (or possibly reduced in some way, I honestly can't remember). I'm not sure if blaming it on your wife would do you any favours (in court or at home, lol), as your supposed to make sure that the vehicle you're driving is legal in all aspects ...

It couldn't hurt to send a second request, just make sure you have proof of the requests you sent in (time and date stamped). It would (presumably) show your due diligence.

I checked a little more into my previous situation, and I received the notice of trail May 2nd or 3rd, but the date on the notice said it was issued April 19. In any case, my ...

If you look at http://www.e-laws.gov.on.ca/html/statutes/french/elaws_statutes_90h08_f.htm#s141s7 , it basically states that when making a turn from a designated turning lane (there are signs there, like stanton said), you must turn into the corresponding lane on the roadway you're turning onto. Failure to do so is why you got the disobey sign ...

Well you make some interesting points although.........

I realize that someone could still get a stunt driving charge with even a 100km/h speed governor on city streets, that's seems pretty obvious - it was controlling the 'flow of traffic' [speed] on the highway where the use of governors I beleive would make a definite positive outcome ... less ...

How long before your court date did you request disclosure? If you gave them an appropriate amount of time and they didn't get it to you with enough time to prepare a defence, or before your court date, then you could request an adjournment of the case, but make sure it's placed as a result of the courts failure to provide you with time to go over ...

Well, I remember driving west on the 401 from the DVP to Dixon/Martin Grove a year or two ago in blinding rain, and couldn't see the orange (construction) lines worth a shiznit, and judging from the other cars driving all over the place, no one else could either, until the white lines showed up again.

I remember in elementary school, around grade 4-5, the cops set up a program with our school, where they pulled over the speeders, and then had the little kids (us) write the warnings and hand them to the speeders, emphasizing the fact that they could of killed us by speeding (as there had been a couple of fatal car vs pedestrian accidents at the ...

I just want to say that yes a paralegal is "expensive", at least the up front cost is.

However, consider the impact that a Careleess Driving conviction carries: Heavy fine, 6 demerit points, possible loss of license (unlikely in your circumstances but could happen if you already have demerit points.)

PLUS here is the big one: Your insurance ...

You can report it to the police, but nothing can really be done. The cops may watch out for a car matching his description for a short while (to see if they can catch him in the act), but not much else they can do. Though I've heard of instances where people have gotten so many complaints against them that they get a letter sent to their house ...

Definitely seek legal representation. Like you seem to be aware of, your insurance rates will likely double if convicted (especially with an accident and possible injury in the mix). If you think long term costs, the paralegal may save you a lot of money (and stress).

Yea, sometimes it's just not worth it (and next time consider checking your rear-view mirror first ;)) . Did the officer say if he clocked you with radar?

I'd suggest you pick option 3 (trial option) and request disclosure, to see what evidence the officer has. You might be able to get it dropped to a lesser charge. A paralegal would be able to ...
