Prohibited Turns

Traffic tickets for Prohibited turns 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.

Two or Three demerit points
A fine of one hundred and ten dollars ($110.00)
A conviction registered on your driving record for three years
Determination of fault where a traffic accident accident has occurred
Possible insurance increases

Just because an "international sign" indicates something, does not mean that the sign is in fact enforceable. There is a clear set of guidelines in the "Ontario Regulations" that designate how signs are to be posted and what they can and cannot say that can only be brought up in court during a trial.

In accident scenarios where the driver made a turn, the insurance companies will utilize the industry "fault determination chart". They will assess a "turning driver" 100 % at fault. A successful defense may result in a full or partial reversal of fault. This could save you thousand of dollars on insurance premiums.
