I was caught speeding a few months ago...the policeman claimed 100 as I was exiting a 60 community zone, though I believe it was more like 85-90. It was a stupid mistake and a fair cop. The policeman suggested I go to court as more than likely the fine...$500 would be reduced. I went, spoke to a prosecutor and agreed a plee of not guilty to the charge of 100 in a 60 zone, but guilty to 85 in a 60. The fine was reduced to $240.
The whole procedure including appearing in court took a morning but was obviously worth it. I also received 3 points, but, as I still have my British license I'm wondering how or if they will appear on my Ontario License when I finally get one. I'm sure I'll be on some computer somewhere, I wonder if anyone on here has received points whilst driving on a UK license?
