You may be considered to be involved in a high-risk activity if you are caught doing the following activities.

  • You exceed the speed limit of a particular area by more than 31 miles per hour or 50 kilometers per hour.
  • If one or more tires of your motor vehicle are not in contact with the ground. In other words, all four tires of your car must be in touch with the road’s surface. Doing this is not legal as it causes the tires to lose traction. As a result, you pose a threat to yourself and other drivers on the highway.
  • Doing certain things such as downshifting quickly and accelerating violently. Or accelerating while holding the handbrake to cause your front or rear wheels to spin faster than the other wheels. This includes wheel burning or sliding/drifting.
  • Suddenly stopping or slowing down your car, thereby interfering with other cars’ smooth movement on the highway.
  • You’re cruising at normal speed, but you’re not allowing the car behind you to pass.
  • Ignoring the traffic signal and taking turns.
  • If you’re caught driving with someone in the trunk of your car.
  • Driving while keeping the driver’s seat empty. This is possible nowadays, thanks to the auto-driver technology that comes with most modern cars. Unfortunately, running the car with an empty drivers’ seat is illegal.
  • If you’re driving pattern indicates that you’re in pursuit of another vehicle.
  • Advancing through the highway by overtaking other cars and changing lanes repeatedly.
  • Driving carelessly, or not paying attention to your surroundings. This puts the lives of pedestrians and other drivers nearby at high risk.

If the traffic cops catch you doing any of the above-listed activities, the officer can charge you with a stunt driving ticket.

Frequently Asked Questions

No! As of May 1st, 2008 only a licensed paralegal or lawyer may represent you in court. Before you give any paralegal your case and money make sure he/she is licensed.
No! Paralegals, like lawyers, are regulated by the Law Society of Ontario. As a result, guarantees are prohibited. A Paralegal that offers a “Guarantee” or “We Win or it’s FREE”, is acting outside the “Paralegal’s Rules of Conduct” as set out by the Law Society and should be reported. You would be extremely wise not to hire a Paralegal to defend who is breaking this rule. There have been many cases before the Law Society Tribunal ruling against such a practice. A person offering a Guarantee may be fraudulently offering services and may actually not be a licenced Paralegal.
Demerit points are not listed on a ticket. Call us to find out if your ticket has demerit points.
There are many charges, if you are found guilty, will result in a suspension your driver’s licence for 3, 7, 30 or 180 days.
Depending on the particular charge, tickets issued to a NOVICE DRIVER (G1/G2) may result in a suspension. Suspensions may range from 30 days to 6 months or more. Call Fight Traffic Tickets to determine if you risk a licence suspension.
No! What matters most is a Paralegal’s legal training and trial experience. Licenced Paralegals are trained and, following extensive Law Society examinations, are licenced to provide legal services in all Ontario Provincial Offences Courts. In fact, the majority of representatives in Provincial Offences Courts are Paralegals – not lawyers and not former police officers. Most police officers have never even been in a trial. In fact, police officer’s have hired Fight Traffic Tickets to represent them in Court!
Depending on the jurisdiction; fighting a traffic ticket may take anywhere from 10 to 11 months or more.
DON’T DO IT! In most cases, if you have been charged with a moving violation, a meeting with the prosecutor guarantees a conviction. At these meetings you have no chance to win because you are pleading guilty and may, in some cases, receive a suspension of your licence. The prosecutor does not have to prove the case against you and the officer doesn’t show up. By attending an Early Resolution meeting you are giving up the possibility to totally win.
