I am currently a resident of BC, but moving to Ontario. I have an ignition interlock restriction on my BC driver license for driving over .08, but was not charged under the Criminal Code of Canada. I was wondering what procedures I would need to go through to acquire an Ontario driver license and if I would be elligible for the Reduced Suspension with Ignition Interlock Conduct Review Program?

Re: Moving from BC to Ontario, lost license for being over .
Reduced Suspension with Interlock program is specifically for people who are charged criminally and plead within a certain time frame. You may still have to get an ignition interlock here in Ontario, but I don't think it will be through this program.

Re: Moving from BC to Ontario, lost license for being over .
Just to clarify, what were you actually convicted of?
Is this BC's law where they require you to install an ignition interlock regardless of whether you are convicted or not? If so, and you were NOT convicted of anything, you do not require an ignition interlock here. If your BC licence is still valid, you should be able to get an Ontario licence without any issues. They might note that you had a roadside "warn" on the licence but that's it. In Ontario, you only need the interlock if you are convicted of impaired driving, or you blow "WARN" three or more times in a five-year period.

Double Talk??
So many avid drivers on here have a huge beef for "follow too close", "unsafe lane changes" and "inexperienced drivers (G1, G2)".
Yet those same people offer advice to these drivers to get off their tickets when they finally get caught.....that just doesn't make sense!
First Timer...Please help!
Hi all,
I'm new to this forum and this is my first post.
I got a hand-held device ticket on Thursday March 16. $490 and 3 demerit points. The officer was hiding on a street and I drove by him with my phone in my hand.
Was just wondering if it's worth fighting it?

Speeding and Follow Too Closely
I'm writing for myself this time.
This morning, I was on the WB 407 on my way to school. For about 15 km, I was following an OPP SUV in the left lane. The officer was generally driving between 120 and 125, and I made sure to keep a safe distance. Before I go any further, yes, I know I was speeding,…

Spelling error on proof of insurance - Ticketed
Hi Everyone
How easy would it be to beat a ticket for "failing to provide proof of insurance" for the simple reason of a street name misspelling on my proof of insurance? The street is a woman's name, ending in ie, but the insurance slip was spelled with a y. In my mind this is not a failure to…
