    Driving While Under Suspension

    How to fight a Driving While Under Suspension ticket?

    If charged with, driving under suspension leads to fines up to $25,000, and if you are able to get insured again your premiums could be thousands more per year.

    In driving under suspension cases, you can also go to jail and it is ALWAYS recommended to have legal representation for your case. We understand things like these happen. Thus, we prepare your defence uniquely by offering you the best legal help you can get.

    We fight your driving under suspension conviction in many ways, mainly:

    • proving you were not aware of the suspension
    • explaining that you tried everything to avoid the suspension
    • proving the suspension was invalid
    • stating a lack of notice
    • Proving Insufficient documentary evidence

    The Highway Traffic Act states:

    53. (1) Every person who drives a motor vehicle or streetcar on a highway while his or her driver’s licence is suspended under an Act of the Legislature or a regulation made thereunder is guilty of an offence and on conviction is liable,
    (a) for a first offence, to a fine of not less than $1,000 and not more than $5,000; and
    (b) for each subsequent offence, to a fine of not less than $2,000 and not more than $5,000, or to imprisonment for a term of not more than six months, or to both. R.S.O. 1990, c. H.8, s. 53 (1); 1997, c. 12, s. 7 (1).”

    At the time of a first conviction for driving while suspended, the penalties are:

    • A fine, not less than $1,000 and not more than $5,000
    • A mandatory six-month suspension of your driver’s licence
