Traffic Tickets with the associated Demerit Points have a
Direct Impact on Insurance Rates and your right to drive in Ontario
Traffic tickets may have a dramatic effect on your drivers licence, your right to drive and your insurance rates. Most moving violations have demerit points attached to them.
All speeding tickets for more than fifteen (15) kilometers over the speed limit have demerit points attached to the ticket. For example a speeding ticket for sixteen (16) kilometers has 3 demerit points and for speeds over fifty kilometers there are 6 demerit points.
The police nor the prosecution will make the driver aware of what traffic tickets have demerit points, or how many demerit points. As well at court the prosecutor and court may not, nor are they required to advise you anything about the demerit points associated with your traffic ticket.
Many traffic tickets have hidden licence suspensions that the court is not required to may you aware of. Although the loss of one to three demerit points will not effect most drivers. The demerit points stay on the driving record for two (2) years from the date of offence. Should there be an accumulation of six to nine demerit points, the Ministry of Transportation may call the driver into the Ministry's office to discuss the suspension of the driver's licence.
