Last week I went to my friend's house at 9.30 pm to drop off something and parked the car for 15 min. curbside and got a ticket for "parked facing the wrong way". This is a two way street in east-west direction in a residential area. The houses are on the south side of the street and parking is allowed on that side. On the north side there is ...

Guys

I just got a letter in the mail from MTO. They want me to come for an interview to explain why my license should not be suspended.

Any advice?

I had one about 30 years ago.
I told him how I had just got a new car with a V-8
and now I new how to control it.

You go in and they ask for your license then ask why you deserve
it back.

Just ...

Hey guys, looking for some advice here.

I was on my way to school just a little over an hour ago and I got a ticket for traveling southbound on Military Trail from Highcastle Rd.

I was going down the hill, and there was a police car stopped on the unpaved shoulder and he waved for me to stop. I was puzzle as to why he wanted me to stop because I ...

Well I think your map gives it away.

I was classified at fault due to it being PI (although very minor).

the fault is not determined by amount of injury or lack thereof

Does the MTO keep this on record as my own personal 'at fault' accident regardless?

all collisions and conviction since the day you were born are on the MTO
records

Understood in that aspect, however is that ...

Thanks for the help.

I just went to 1 Mary Street today to let them know I want my day in court. I filled out the yellow form, now I'll just have to wait for the paperwork to arrive.

I've already taken photographs of the place where my car was parked. I took two pictures; one looking in each direction. The photographs make it clear there are no ...

each early attendance is different.

They dropped it right there after I spoke to them.

I think you should never take there first offer.

It looks scary but nothing to it.

I just wanted to provide a final update to this thread since I hate how many other threads end the day before court and we never get to find out how things ended up.

Yesterday I arrived in court prepared to do battle arguing legal points before the Justice. I was ready with:

1 An 11b Motion to stay due to unreasonable delay.
2) A Motion to Quash ...

Maybe I should rephrase my question.

Let's suppose I'm driving around for a place to park, and it just so happens that, like the big dummy I am, I forgot to bring with me a PDF showing me the parking restrictions on all the streets in Oshawa. Now, let's say I find a dead end side street, and park in a spot where there are no "No Parking" signs to ...

The date stamp can be set to any day you want on the camera.

( I found that out, when I noticed my camera resets to the date of manufacture each time I change the batteries )

Just a FYI.

For some reason, I was pull over by a police, at that time my 9 years old daughter sit at back seat with seat belt on. The police said when he checked the car, my daughter was kind of laying on the back seat and gave me a ticket which say "passenger under 16 is not properly wear seat belt". This ticket will be $110 fine and 2 points.

Anybody know ...

I have been pulling my hair searching for the fax number for Old City hall court house to try and have proof that I sent it in but I cant seem to find it on their site or anywhere.

If anyone knows where to point me please do otherwise I will go into court and fill out the form.

EDIT: TicketCombat has Old city hall byt my offense notice says 60 ...

Just came back from the court house. Went armed with my defence (as we discussed here) and pictures. Saw the officer was there. Spoke to the prosecutor as does everyone before the judge comes into the courtroom. Explained my position - that the load (cabinet) was 3/4 inside the trailer and 1/4 was up over the 2 foot side, that it was secure, and ...

Did he activate his red/blue lights?
If he was behind you he must have been real late.
Did he light up everything so that there was no accident?

I don't know how you were unsafe if you both made it through.

I think you will win this one.

are you kidding me?

so your saying the cop must have also ran the red light to aprehend the ...

What's wrong with mailing it? My last ticket was 2 hours away. So I'm supposed to drive 4 hours (endangering hundreds of others on the road, LOL) just to get a court date? And this is smarter?

Perhaps I'll suggest that the crown deliver the date in person to his house, LOL.



They used to deliver them even for parking tickets in the 70's

But ...

If the offense (failure to wear seatbelt) occurred 1km away from where the ticket says it did. Is that relevant ?

The officer observed me without my seatbelt at an intersection, I then put it on and he followed me to my house (1km away) and wrote the ticket with the offense occurring on my street.

Only it means anything is if it happened ...

No problem with that although it would be easier to go over-top and much quicker must have been rookies.

I live in Ottawa, Ontario (Canada).
I got slapped with a ticket of $45 for violationing a Bylaw when I parked on a street infront of my doctors office.

I parked within 3 M of a point on the curb or edge of roadway opposite a fire hydrant.

Here's the details:
I find a parking sign on the road that says NO PARKING < , which means that I can park ...

Is it reasonable to assume that the scheduled trial date from a particular speed trap would all be on the same date?
Last weekend I got stopped (20 Kph over) at a speed trap. There was another car pulled over before I even left. I would imagine that they would try and scedule all of the court dates resulting from those tickets on the same day. Is ...

Rates will not be affected if you are hit from behind as well, which is 0% responsibility according to insurance accident rules.

I'm just completing a FSCO course right now, and some of the fault rules are infuriating, including this one, because even if idiot driver #1 pulls in front of you in some road rage battle and slams on his breaks and ...

Hey Viper..

Wow... really. The incident happened on Dundas near Parliament street, I think. I didn't see the flashing lights, but perhaps I've missed it because I didn't know they were there for the purpose you stated. I'll pay more attention next time. How many seconds does it flash before doors get opened?

I don't think every street-car ...

There is a 2-3 inch orange light (top right of back of car)
They are supposed to flash this when about to stop.
I noticed the king car using it today.

This light is not known by all (for it's purpose) but that is what it is for.

Not sure how you could see it from where you were.
