Just got a 400$ worth of traffic tickets...

Right in front of my house too...
Ticket 1: Speeding: 81km/h in a 50km/h zone.... 31 over: 226$
Ticket 2: Failure to show insurance paper: 65$
Ticket 3: Failure to show car ownership: 110$
So ticket 1, he caught me... But it's a street where everybody goes 80 on. 4 lanes... I just got caught. He could have been lenient...
Ticket 2 and 3: Turns out my papers were in my glove bo like I thought they were. I just didn't find them.... Once the arrest was done I found them (of course)......
Essentially I'm contesting everything and see what happens.... The way insurance works up here nowadays isn't the amount of points that determine if the premium goes up. It's the amount of tickets recieved. Tthe dude gave me 3 separate tickets.... Also, he wanted to give me one because i wasn't wearing my glasses. I had laser surgery 10 years ago.... Apparently I forgot about it.... But hey, lucky me. he decided to be lenient...
Sigh.... I'll have to negociate with the Crown and strike a deal of some kind. Cancel ticket 2 and 3 for sure. I had my fucking papers... And I'm gonna try and get the seeping ticket cut down to 21 overr instead of 31 and in exchange I'll tell them I'm willing to pay 175 or 200$ (which is more than a regular 21 over)... Do you think they'll accept my terms?

81km/h in a residential area? 31 over? You should be flogged.
This is 32 km/h

There's nothing to contest, you couldn't present the information when asked, anyone can go home and claim they always had it.

Naw. I was driving with an expired license. I got a new one and the case was dismissed.

Unfortunetly yes. My side is residential the other side is commercial. I was 23 years old when I bought this. I got it at a wicked price.

I got my first ever speeding ticket a couple weeks ago. 62 kph in a 40, reduced to 55 which meant no points. Ordinarily I don't really speed much but it's kind of a ridiculously low limit for that spot. It's a steep hill down to a valley of forested park. You would have to brake heavily the whole way down to go 40, and virtually nobody does this. 2 or 3 days to the end of the month, I guess they had a quota to fill.

Ack, sucks, sorry to hear that. I hope you have double pane glass (in Canada you probably do though) for noise reduction.

it seems like you could be totally in the wrong and still get a ticket reduced just by showing up to dispute it. state doesn't want to put time/money into such a trivial he said she said type of dispute
pretty cool

Get an adjournment. Then if you can, get another one, and perhaps another if possible.
From what I've read, delaying as much as you can will improve your odds of having it all dismissed.
I got a speeding ticket, then managed to get an adjournment a few weeks before the date, so it was delayed. It was almost a year between when I got the ticket and when I actually had to show up for court. When I did show up, the cop said he wasn't notified that there was an adjournment, and he wasn't prepared, so he dismissed the case against me.

But from the original post it looks like the charge is failure to show it, not failure to have it. Whether he had it or not he failed to show it. I once got cited for failure to have insurance, I showed the judge that I was in fact insured at the time, I just didn't have the card in my car.

Driving tickets are so gay.
Hope u can talk your way out of it. $400 is a lot of Canadian coin (i think).

If that doesn't work, sending a multi-page discovery to the prosecutor usually does the trick. But I haven't had to resort to that one because the adjournment process above ALWAYS WORKS.

I called my step dad (cop for 25 years).
He said I can easily only be stuck payng half of the tickets... He'll tell me what to do step by step when he has time. I should be fine.
Still sucks.... I was less than 200 feet from my house. Can you believe it????
