Hello,

I live in Toronto, Ontario.

In August 2012, I received a speeding ticket in Laval, Quebec.
The ticket says I was going 78 km/h in a 50 km/h zone; however, I was following the flow of traffic.

I have now received my court date and would like to take action.
I don’t mind paying the fines; I just don’t want the demerit points on my licence.
I don’t want this ticket to affect my insurance rates.

I should also mention that the officer did not speak one word of English.
I repeatedly told her that I don’t understand French and she kept speaking French.

Please advise.
What should I do next?
How can I get the points removed from my licence?

Hope to hear from you soon.
Thank you.

Hello.  I just got stopped by the Montreal police today and given a $444 ticket for not having paid my driver’s licence renewal fees on time.  They didn’t stop me for any other driving offence.  I don’t know what happened, but I honestly never received a renewal for my licence (not that I can actually prove this).  I haven’t recently moved or anything, so it has nothing to do with that.  I received my car registration renewal notice in December – it was due January 31, and I paid it by postdated cheque on time.  I would have paid my licence at the same time had I have received it!!  I guess it would also have been due in January since my birthday is on January 23.  I think that I didn’t really think twice about it because we used to only have to pay our driver’s licence every 2 years.  So it didn’t even strike me as strange to have not received anything.  I obviously know now to expect BOTH renewals each year. (more…)

I got pulled over and got a ticket for speeding and no driver license.

which driver license i have.I have 2 driver’s license one is from my country of origin (mexico) and and international translation driver’s license which expires on 13-feb-02.

so i went and payed the speeding ticket $140 and asked a dismissal of the no driver’s license ticket.And the girl at the desk said no and that i have to go a hearing with a grand jury to contest the ticket.

i told her i have no other choice but to contest because i wasn’t driving without driver’s license.

this is costing me days of work .what should i do?

hello,

here is my story :
I got a speeding ticket but the officer never asked for my driver license. He just gave me the ticket. I asked him to see the speed I was driving at but he didn’t answer. He completely ignored every question I asked him and just went back to his car.

should I contest this ticket ?

thanks,
GM

Nicolas didn’t get the notice for his driver’s licence renewal… He unfortunately got a ticket… And he is asking if there is a 48hours delay, since his licence was expired since 3 days only and that he paid for it the morning after…

Hello,
I am 19 years old and got arrested once (January 23rd) since my licence was expired since 3 days.

So I got a 438$ ticket. I never got the letter that reminded me that I had my licence to pay and so I didn’t waste any time and paid for it the morning after. I would like to know if there is a 48hours delay to prove that I did my renewal in order to void the ticket ???

When we’ve done bad things and that we loose our licence, it is possible to have a special favour and keep our licence if we absolutely need it to work.

Ouf ! When you have a probationary licence, you must be careful to don’t get any tickets since the numbers of points are limited…

Ticket and probationary licence don’t go well together… Talk about this to Frederic…

I just got caught and got a 1195$ and 14 demerit point ticket (930+255+10) and I have my probationary licence… what should I do ? I will have my 15 points in August, but on my probationary I only have 1 point left (I lost 3points in last April) and I already am contesting 2 tickets (2 points 130 in a 100km/h zone) and (3 points, sure of winning) ? I just don’t want to lose the points.

Hello,

On April 27th, I got a 118$ ticket and two demerit points for driving at 77km/h in a 50km/h zone.

The problem is that I only have my probationary licence and I only got 2 points left. I will have my real licence on March 2nd 2011, so in about 10 months. I would like to contest in order to win some time and get the points on March 2nd. The thing is that I don’t know if I have a valid reason to contest the ticket in front of the judge. (more…)
