Hello everyone! This is my first post here and would really like some advice on a ticket I received. I was in downtown toronto and stopped in front of a convience store to do a quick dropoff there. The parking is one of those street parking and figuring that I would be quick I skipped paying(yes my fault). What I didn't know was that they had sectioned off a bit of that street parking to handicap parking only, and my rear of the car just passed the post by 2 inches at most. I come back seeing an parking enforcement officier giving me a ticket. First I asked to see if he could give me a chance and lay off the ticket. He decided but said no. Then I was like okay, so I waited for him to issue the ticket only to find out that he charged me for parking in a handicap spot. So my case is that and I think I shouldn't have gotten that ticket. Is there anything I can do to lower the cost cause 450$ is costly. I have already filed for court date and have received the court date. No photos or disclosure was requested(unaware of such thing).

Im not 100% sure but did the place have a handi cap parking sign posted, or was it just printed on the road..I think if it was just printed on the road it doesnt count...but if there was a sign, then your most likey not getting out of this one... Best route might be to go see Prosecutor and ask for a plea. There are no points.

Hi. So this is what happened to me. I was doing 120 km/h on a 60 km/h road. I failed to notice the police cruiser that was coming in my direction and sped right past it. I was not pulled over, most likely because of the narrow road and the cars coming behind him that would have made it impossible…
18 months ago I got pulled over driving a commercial vehicle and got 4 tickets for vehicle defects. I managed to get them all dropped. I pleaded guilty to a handheld device charge that I got in the same stop.

I have a court date next month to fight Disobeying the Signs and also failing to produce proper documents (do not have my ticket in front of me - I had a copy of one side of the vehicle registration).
I recently received disclosure documents. Not a lot really. Just a cop description of the…
From disclosure, the officers notes state the serial number of the radar unit and that it was a Genesis II Directional.
Also in disclosure were two pages of the radar manual (Field Tests section) and across the top of these pages it says Genesis II Directional (Rev 02/05). So the test pages match…
Hey question that I think here's probably the best place to get the answer:
I was charged with a careless driving offence in oct, trail in early april, so as of right now my insurance record is 100% clean... except the officer did file an accident report at the scene where I was classified at fault…
