Hello everyone,
Does anyone know whether or not an at-fault accident (as per police report in Michigan), without any tickets, will be sent to Ontario or be a part of my Ontario driving record?

Hey folks. New forumer here.
Just curious to hear a few opinions on the following video taken at a photo enforced intersection.
As you can see, the light was still yellow for a fraction of a second as the camera-car entered the intersection (crossed the stop line), but it was close.
I drive a Honda Civic and we all know how those are when it comes to theft. On my driveway my brothers car was stolen twice and once broken in to. Also a few other cars have been stolen on my street. I have an alarm and all that. But say my alarm was going off and I ran outside and fought off the…

Reciprocal Agreement between Ontario and Michigan
Hello everyone,
Does anyone know whether or not an at-fault accident (as per police report in Michigan), without any tickets, will be sent to Ontario or be a part of my Ontario driving record?
Re: Reciprocal Agreement between Ontario and Michigan
Accidents don't show up on your Ontario abstract (aka driving record). If you've been charged and convicted with something related to the accident, that will show up (eg. following too closely, careless driving, etc). Not all laws correlate from province to state, so only a select set of laws are included in a reciprocal agreement.
Insurance providers in Canada use Autoplus. Every provider in Ontario belongs to it. This covers your history from the insurance side of things. If you've had an accident, made a claim, had someone else make a claim against you, non payment, non disclosure... it will show be on your Autoplus report.
Your insurance policy requires you to inform your provider if you've been involved in an accident. In the case of an at fault accident, it's probably only a matter of time before they find out when there's eventually a claim made against you.
So no, your abstract wont show an accident. However, if there's a claim made against you, they'll find out about it that way. It will then be recorded in your Autoplus report so you can't just hop from insurance company to insurance company without detection.
