Traffic Tickets -Turning Violations

Traffic tickets for turning violations can have up to four different penalties

The fine attached to a turning violation traffic ticket, like most moving violations, is not the only penalty for the offence. Any traffic ticket for a turning violation has four or more different penalties.

Although many turning violation traffic tickets, are an over sight, or not seeing a sign, any turning violation traffic ticket if not fought will go on your driving record which is available to your insurance company to see and base your insurance rates upon.

Your insurance company perceives this as a "line" or conviction on your driving abstract, and bases your rates on whats on the driving record.

As well all turning violation traffic tickets have at least two demerit points, and some under certain sections of the Highway Traffic Act of Ontario have three demerit points.

Even traffic tickets issued under a municipal bylaw have two demerit points.


Going to Traffic Court

The case to prove a disobey sign charge sounds simple, was there a traffic sign and did the motorist disobey it.

Actually a trial for a disobey sign charge can become quite involved, and to be properly represented and to win your case qualified legal help at OTT Legal Services is the best way to win.

At court your defense agent can ask questions that neither you or the police may not know, e.g. Is the sign clearly visible and properly erected. What distance was the sign visible for? What do the Ontario Regulations say about traffic signs?

These and other questions help OTT Legal Services to win your case.
