Ontario Highway Traffic Act

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.
