Ontario Highway Traffic Act

Hi,

I was charged with careless driving for a one-vehicle accident, and would like to know how to go about pleading not guilty. I was driving on a rural road at night in an 80 kmh zone. I was driving up a hill. At the top of the hill is a 90 degree turn sign (no stop sign, no kmh posted). I hit the brakes too late, and because the road goes ...

Hi,
I got this ticket last year in toronto and received court date recently.

Basically I parket on a street where there are marked spots for car parking but they were all faded with only the white edges showing. I assumed I was in the correct spot when I got out. I never noticed the fire hydrant in the bushes.

When I returned I saw the ticket ...

question for a friend of mine.....says she got a 3 day suspension for giving a A on a roadside. Thing is she wasnt driving. She is a g2 driver and the car was parked in a parking lot, she just ran out to get something and turned the car on. Can a 3 day be issued if you arent driving on a highway - (I've read for impaired it doesnt matter, but 3 ...

Wrong section Viper. She was charged under HTA 78.1(1) Not 78(1).
The only exceptions to 78.1(1) are the following:
Exceptions
(4) Subsection (1) does not apply to,
(a) the driver of an ambulance, fire department vehicle or police department vehicle;
(b) any other prescribed person or class of persons;
(c) a person holding or using a device ...

Received a ticket for texting at a red light. Any suggestions on how to defend it? Court date tomorrow.

Thanks in advance.

This may be an extreme instance in your case but

They shoot fish in a barrel all around there both ways east and west.
So the cop is gonna show up.

select option 3

You can either take the bargain for 14 over or:

What I would do.(since the dollar amount is so low)
Show up on the day ordered.(If markham road pay at least 4 hours of parking)
A bit early if you can.
Make sure your name is on the ...

It's 11:00PM on June summer night 2010. I made a left turned from 50km/h zone (Road A) to 60 km/h (Road B) safely on green light. As soon as I made the turn I see that the next traffic lights are red so I rolled off the throttle and cruised in right lane. Light turned green and I see two cars in both lanes pulling away from me. I maintain my ...

I read this topic about an expired license plate:
http://www.ontariohighwaytrafficact.com/topic3100.html

A forum member in that topic (named Stanton) said "If it's the cost of the fine that's your concern, request a first attendance meeting with the Crown Prosecutor. Show them proof that you renewed your plate right away and they'll probably ...

So I got a ticket from an officer last week for operate motor vehicle without insurance. I was driving a car from our lot (a used car dealership company), my boss said that the car is insured under the fleet policy and that I am fine. The problem was that our dealer plate was not on the car at the time (it was left back at the shop), so when I got ...

In Mississauga today I saw a peel car with a sign in window "mechanics test"
He was doing speed tests.(real fast spurts to about 90) limit there 80
I was going to pull him over as he had a tail-light out. (but I was busy)

I was in durham going 60K

A chev cop cruiser burst out and was in front so fast I ...

Not likely anything there.

I have at least 10 tickets that I asked for trial on.(Toronto Markham road court)
I have received no response on any of them.

It is now over 4 years for that bunch.

Do these just disappear after so long?

Thanks for the help.

As to your original Q?
"if any-one knows different (please answer)"

1RST What kind of cop gave you the ticket?

2nd
I just found that the (traffic safety police) can give you a ticket for almost anything.(parking too).
3RD
Those points on cvor are really add to insurance cost.
