Why does the government care about unpaid 407 tolls? The 407 is privatized now.

You can still renew your license if you have any unpaid HTA fines. It's when your license becomes suspended due to unpaid fines that you can't renew. You must pay your outstanding HTA fines at any Provincial Offences court office and THEN you have go to MTO and pay $150 to reinstate your driver's license. Don't assume that because you paid your fines your license will be automatically reinstated. You are still suspended until MTO tells you otherwise.

If you pay the outstanding amount for the "UNPAID" fines yet fail to pay the $150 fee you are considered "unlicenced" and are not a "suspended" driver.

i.e.

YYYY/MM/DD

supposed to be 2006/04/01

ticket states 2006/01/04

Depends on the JP. Probably fixable though.

The ticket isn't evidence so errors on it don't necessarily invalidate the ticket. Most errors on the ticket can be amended in court with the permission of teh JP, and most JPs are quite liberal giving out that permission.

The real evidence is in the cop's notebook. If the notebook has errors, then there is a chance.

I hate people who think that they can get off on a ticket because the cop put the date down wrong or some like that.

If I was a Judge, and someone came into my court with like that, I would tack on a 100$ court fee and throw them out for that.

I was at court a few days ago fighting a few things and there was some kid with his mom, and they were talking about how 'Oh he put the date down wrong so the ticket is invalid blah blah '

Lady, shut the **** up. Just because a cop had momentary dislexia does not mean that you didnt break the law.
