For the past couple days I can no longer see responses, the site just shows me the original post in any thread. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Also, why is there a minimum length for Subject lines?

Just to clarify, you are saying that you have never even been pulled over (in your life?) but your license has been suspended?

If that is truly the case, it sounds like a clerical error to me. These things do happen.

Others here will know the process better than I do, but I would suspect there must be some contact information in this letter, you ...

B) Parking is probihited between 8:30am and 4:30pm while Monday to Friday in July and August are exempted.


I don't think anybody's claiming that the answer is B.

In fact, I don't think any of your options reflect the true (intended) meaning as bent said.

F) Parking is prohibited (between 8:30 am and 4:30 pm from Monday to Friday), except ...

While I agree with bend's interpretation, as a computer programmer I can see how there are challenges with interpreting the logic based purely on reading the sign

There may be regulations which inform us on how to read the sign, of course.

To the rear shouldn't be a problem... your vehicle probably came from the factory with red flashing lights on the rear

Hear! Hear!

OK, I won't tell you.

But I will tell you that your argument won't float in court.

My wife got a substantial reduction at the early resolution route by having a good sob story to tell.

Be repentant and explain your situation. If you get lucky you can get a reduction of the fine and time to pay. My wife got both for an unbeatable red-light-camera ticket, when in a similar circumstance.

The onus is on the driver who is required to yield. Drivers who have the right of way should not have to alter their driving to accommodate those who do not.


While I don't disagree with that, it kind of makes it impossible for somebody whose driveway is very near an intersection to actually comply, no?

I just noticed this morning in my ...

More details required.... 136 (b) is a failure to stop offense.

I read it that you are already convicted and asking why they are making you take a road test, is that your question?

Not an expert, but it strikes me that if you couldn't see the vehicle because it was around a corner, it was not "so close as to constitute an immediate hazard". But I invite the experts to shoot me down!

64. (1) Every motor vehicle, other than a motorcycle, when driven on a highway shall be equipped with at least two braking systems, each with a separate means of application and effective on at least two wheels, one of which shall be adequate to stop the vehicle as required by regulations made by the Ministry and the other of which shall be ...

Regarding the emergency service bill, this is normal in some municipalities and you can pass it on to the insurance company or pay it yourself. The bill is for attending the incident in general, not specific to you, but since you were the "at fault" party you get the bill.

Regarding disclosure, you should check with the courthouse. The onus may be ...

Of course you lose nothing except your time by fighting it, but be aware that nothing you have said so far would seem to indicate that you will win.

You say you stopped, the officer says you didn't. In the absence of other witnesses, who will be believed?

If you decide to fight it, consult the various other threads here about the process.

The best and brightest have spoken, and FWIW I agree with them. As I read your post, you have been convicted, right? So, you need to start an appeal. That's a bit more complicated process, as I understand it, and there are specific time limits, etc. Depending on your comfort level you might consider retaining some help.

Please report back on the ...

No harm in waiting, and you could save yourself some hassle.

My knowledge on this dates back to the 1990's, so things may have changed. Unless somebody else confirms, take it with a grain of salt.

1) In theory any vehicle can be registered as commercial or passenger. Once registered in a class, that class can never be changed.
2) The correct location for the valtag for a commercial vehicle is on the front ...

Huh. Sorry, I don't have a good answer for you. It does sound like double jeopardy to me though. Hopefully some more experienced members will chip in some advice. I will be watching...

Just to clarify, the second ticket was from an automated red light camera?

The best and brightest may correct me, but I believe that the officer has 6 days to file the ticket...

Wait a few days and then call the appropriate court house to inquire on the status of the ticket. The officer may notice the issue and not file it.

What's the difference paying the ticket on without asking for early resolution or pay after meeting the prosecutor on early resolution? Have I not accepted the charge against me on both cases?


No difference. At the early resolution meeting you might get the prosecutor to agree to a reduced fine.... or not...


Also, is it possible to confirm ...

This is an interesting one, for me anyhow.

Assuming that there is physically room for both vehicles, what's the difference vs. a roadway which was the narrower dimension to start with?

Suspect we're dealing with common law / case law here as opposed to the written law.

I found it:

Regulation 628, Section 6

6. (1) A permit for a motor vehicle shall be validated by means of evidence of validation provided by the Ministry. O. Reg. 119/12, s. 1.

(2) Evidence of validation for a permit shall be affixed to a number plate for the vehicle in accordance with this Regulation, and the portion of the evidence of ...

My knowledge relates more to moving infractions (former driving instructor), but that section of the HTA is as follows:

Permit to be carried

(5) Subject to subsection (6), every driver of a motor vehicle on a highway shall carry,

(a) the permit for it or a true copy thereof; and

(b) where the motor vehicle is drawing a trailer, the permit for ...

A Careless Driving conviction is a big deal. If I were in your shoes I'd be talking with a legal professional.

The plot thickens!

One comment to the OP: I believe that your insurance would only consider this "minor" so unless you have other tickets on your record the impact on your premium could be negligible. Check with your provider. You would need to weigh the value of your time to fight it vs. the cost of the ticket.

Based on what @billiards15 said ...

I can't put my hands on the exact reference right now, but unless things have changed the regulations say that the plate sticker "must" be affixed to the plate, and the expiry sticker "may" be attached to the ownership. This means (again, unless things have changed) that there is no reason for this not to get tossed at a pre-trial meeting. Can you ...

I'm no expert and I'm sure our experts will chime in, but I'm concerned because I think you should have applied for a "re-opening" not an appeal. An appeal can only succeed if there was an error made by the judge / justice during the original trial.
