Speeding Ticket For Doing 100klm/h In A 60klm Zone : York Region, Newmarket

Hello everyone,

This is my first "major" ticket that results in me gaining 4 demerit points. I have had a few tickets in the past, but this is the first one that has given me any points. My insurance has never raised.

I thought I was only doing 90, but his speedometer was clear. There were cars behind me but I was leading the pack.

The officer did not speak much, but he did show me the speedometer that showed 100klm. He did not reduce the ticket.

For information I am also only a G2 driver, and im not sure exactly how 4 demerit points could effect my licence.

My current plan is to try and fight the ticket in hopes that I could get the ticket lowered as to not affect my insurance. Also, I can get my full G license in this waiting period.

Am I going about this right? Is there anything else I should try to do to lessen the blowback from this incident?

I have never fought a ticket before, so this is all very new to me.

Also, the ticket was not signed by the office, is this an error I can take advantage of? His name is printed on the ticket but no signature.

Again this was in Newmarket, so this is a York Region ticket.

My bad, it was an electronic ticket, so it not being signed should not matter.

As a novice driver, your licence will be suspended for 30 days if you’re convicted of a four demerit point offence. This might be something to consider!
