Unpaid parking tickets in Canada?
    #10106506 - 04/04/09 06:25 PM (14 years, 11 months ago)

I have a $90 parking ticket that I am not going to pay. What is the worst that can happen if I simply ignore it?

I got stuck in the snow approaching a stop sign and had to abandon my car.  It was on a small, low traffic side street, and I actually made it to the side of the road completely out of the way of oncoming traffic not blocking the stop sigh at all.  SO my car is clearly stuck.  There is a foot of snow on the road, and when I get back to my car, there is a damn ticket on the windshield.  Now it is on Christmas eve, and get this... THE TICKET WAS IN RED AND GREEN!! :mad2: MERRY FUCKING CHRISTMAS! 

So I absolutely refuse to pay it.  I could fight it, but I have to drive 45 minutes each way just to make the appointment to fight it.  Then I have to drive back to go to the actual court date.  This is 3 hours of total driving, not to mention the time I have to take out of my day to deal with it, thus resulting in money lost from the work I'd have to miss because the damn place is only open during business hours.  Ultimately it would end up costing me more to fight it than it would to pay it.  I almost paid it, but I'll be damned if I give in to municipal extortion, under the guise of a "By-Law Infraction"

So, seeing as how I am in Canada, what would happen if I just completely ignored this?  On the notices they talk about warrants and legal action, but come on, are they really gonna waste time and money for ninety fucking dollars?


:hippie:

Not sure where you are but in Winnipeg I got one at the university and didn't bother to pay it. It went from 20 bucks to 80 and then they started calling me untill I paid it. Call the ticket place and see if there's a way to pay with a credit card. They will keep harrasing you untill you pay it.

Just fucking pay it dude. It's 90$ big deal that's nothing. Pay it and get it over with instead of wasting money on gas to go to court and shit.

There exists one lie that is the absolute worst. A lie that has successfully infiltrated many of the Western governments. This lie is Christianity, and it must be fought in every way, shape and form. Burn the churches and kill the priests. The abomination that is Christianity must be wiped from this Earth.

I don't think you'd be able to win in court because your car was parked illegally.  Its possible that you could ask the judge to reduce the fine but its not worth the time, just pay it.

On the bright side, the cop probably saw it as a hilarious shakedown.
