Re: HTA 182 (2) ticket

Should you fight the ticket - you should fight EVERY ticket.

The error is unlikely to cause a fatal error though, it can be amended. Read here for a list of fatal errors: http://www.ontariohighwaytrafficact.com ... rror#10923

Re: Help, please! Is speeding ticket worth fighting?

browsing has made a few good good points, the only thing I would suggest is that you read over www.ticketcombat.com to get a better idea of how to ask for disclosure (and tons more of info). If disclosure is incomplete, you can ask for a second request.

To convict, the LEO needs to have "observed you at a higher rate of speed than posted ...

Re: Help needed! Rescheduling my trial date

You can ask the JP directly during court to reschedule (called continuance). As a safe bet, i'd call the court and ask if they received any communications from your lawyer.

Re: Parking on the side of the 401

Generally, if there is a white solid line on the right-hand side of the road, that means that you cannot park there. Example: park on a bicycle lane, you get towed as soon as a p/off cyclist calls the vehicle. Same with the 401. Shoulders are for emergencies, always.

Re: Booked last night hwy 400 at 145km in a posted 100km...HELP!

So, you have one ticket within 3 years already. Adding this one will be pretty bad.
I would file ticket with trial option, and start trying to get the case together. At the very least it will buy you some time. You can always check with what a paralegal can/can't do in the meantime, and what you yourself can/can't do. A reduced charge is still much ...

Re: 123km/h in a 70km/h

Unfortunately, for the impound fees, no. Hence the outcry about this whole law, besides the fact that it is unconstitutional.

Suspension has "never happened" as a result of lower charge. When you are filling out an insurance app, you can state that your license has never been suspended.

Re: Need help for husband

Perhaps calling the court might help clear out the issue. If the license was suspended due to an additional fee that was not billed at the same charge, then the set fine is incorrect. There are precedents where the wrong fines have resulted in tickets being quashed.
