Ontario Highway Traffic Act

This board generally only deals with the Ontario Traffic Act, and it's pretty rare someone with knowledge of the Quebec legislation provides any advice...

good luck

Once the police received the traffic complaint, the matter is investigated (ie: does your description of the vehicle match the registered vehicle's information, is the area you described accurate, is the licence plate accurate, is the description of the driver possibly the RO, etc etc etc).

Generally, the registered owner of the vehicle will be ...

Hi, this happened to me a couple of years ago and it's still bugging me. Every time I tell the story everyone says I'm lucky, but at the same time it was an eye opener for me.

Was out one night with friends and drinking, obviously was watching my intake through the night. At the end I made the choice of driving. It was the end of November and the ...

Yellow car has right of way.

People don't treat the yellow car that way, however.

Attend the court where you were convicted of the offences that netted you all those fines - apply for a payment program, fine payment extension, etc.... so that you can have you licence reinstated in the meantime by the ministry (you will have to pay a reinstatement fee as well, I believe it's $90).

Sounds like you plead to a Toronto by-law, to me.

what jurisdiction is the offence?

Bend, I call them (the Court) every 3 months and they tell me that I didn't get a date yet. Last I called them was in Feb 2013.

Who knows if they are jerking your chain or blowing you off - take Bend's advice and check your abstract to see if you have a conviction for the offence.

If not, you're protected under the Charter 11(b) for ...

If you're asking whether your story is good enough to somehow make this ticket disappear, the answer is no.

+1 to that.

Also wanted to add, it's spelled ...

It's traffic court dude, there is no jury.

Maybe I could argue that I was trying to avoid a dangerously erratic driver beside me. Though I've read that this type of defence is weak.


you answered your own question there.


Anyway, I went for early resolution thinking I could get the charge dismissed at that stage. NOT! So the guy there gave me a copy of the officers handwritten ...

So, just to be clear, you think a video of you showing you breaking the law will help you in court...

It`s very unlikely, but not impossible...

..when I worked in the traffic enforcement unit, I would take note of everybody`s expired insurance, and note what insurance company people verbally advised me they were using. On slow days, I would go ahead and contact the different insurance companies to see if an active policy was in effect. In the ...

What is 4f

11B charter application tends to apply for trials that occur after a year following the incident

google maps this. maybe we can help.

I got caught not completly stopped at a STOP sign.
The officer shocked me when i heard that licence plates adourned on my vehicle were neither associated to me or my car.
I have been using these licence plates attached to this vehicle for seven years. I got nervous and handed him last year`s insurance card (2012 instead 2013). Eventually I got ...
