Hi, Does anyone have any experience fighting a speeding ticket in Quebec? I understand things work differently there compared to Ontario. Is it generally even worth trying? I have spoken with two ticket-contesting companies in Montreal. One claims that the district where I got the ticket in, St. Hyacinthe, always requires the defendant to be present, and hence I would be better off just paying the fine and receive the demerit points. The second company I checked with claims the contrary, that I would not have to be present in court and I can work with them remotely through the phone and email. I am not sure who is right. I would appreciate it if you would share your experience in dealing with speeding tickets in Quebec or recommend a competent ticket lawyer who have experience dealing with tickets issued in St. Hyacinthe.

In June at 401 London and Wellington I got hit twice, speeding which I didn't realize I was doing and cell phone. The Officer made me open my purse and show him my phone. I was going to meet a Rep of my Company in Kitchener, he called I answered. WRONG! The Officer wasn't even nice. My record…
I'm going to preface this with a little concern....I know that at least one moderator on this forum is likely a co-worker of the officer who tagged me. I'm hoping that by being involved here, this moderator is already acting unbiased towards incidents he/she is not directly involved in. Also…
I received a ticket the other day that has my wrong name, wrong address and wrong set fine amount. Is the best thing to do default on it and hope it is quashed and if it isn't file for appeal as per London v. Young ?
Also for an incorrect offence or an offence "not known to law." as an example :
I got ticket for failing to stop at stop sign in Toronto. i heard that the police officer must see the stop line, if there is one, from where he was sitting.
