Ticket for not stopping the vehicle in front of a stop sign
The “American” stop is often made in Quebec… But sometimes our stops are well made… Like in Claire case…
*********
I got a ticket on September 30 for not stopping the vehicle in front of a stop sign.
I am certain that I did my stop. I looked on my right (no car) on my left a car is coming towards his stop and he has a defective light, I then notice that it was a police car. I turn in the Metro’s parking lot and I was surprise to see the police car behind me thinking why.
The officer tells me that I slipped my stop. I told him at that moment that he got a defective front light. His colleague goes and checks it out.
Do I have some chances of winning if I contest this 154$ and 3 demerit points ticket ?
I haven’t got a ticket since 1981.

My opinion :
The fact that you noticed all those details proves that you did indeed make your stop… The important fact is for you to have made your stop… a complete stop. This is all you will tell the judge… “I am sure I made my stop”.
That is the key.
But, still start by asking for the communication of the proof…
Keep us updated.
