hi i was stopped at a ride program the officer saw my bong put me in cuffs told me i was being arrested for possesion of a controlled substance she then searched my vehicle and found nothing else so she gave me a ticket for fail to notify change of address and wrote section 33(1) but that only says i have to give her my liscence when asked which i did. i have been looking at the H.T.A. and cannot find anything about this offence. she also put hwy6 instead of 7 not sure if thats relevant to this charge. anyway i have a few questions #1 can anyone find where in the H.T.A it says i need to notify change of address #2 since section 33(1) is not the correct offence is it a fatal error please help

To clarify a little, it's section 33(1) of HTA regulation 340/94, not 33(1) of the actual HTA. Regulations are basically subsections of the HTA that go into more detailed specifics.
