Question about Being Busted in Ontario With a Detector....

Hey, ive been doing some reading and all that fun stuff.

What happens if you are caught with a detector in your vehicle in Ontario?

I have read, ticket from 100 to 1000$, and you get 3 points on your liscens.....
That i know and understand....oh and you loose your device...

but do you get a Criminal record of any sort?

Yes they arrest you and cuff your hands and legs and throw you in the back of a patty wagon! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Just kidding, its not a criminal offence, its only an offence against the Ontario Highway Traffic Act.

Geez, you're an employer and checking all the criminal records of the submissions...

"murder"
"grand theft"
"larceny"
...

"operating a motor vehicle with a radar warning device"

:shock:

Well, try not to get busted in Ontario. I hope you have an STi or a V1. Always be on the lookout for those "radar detector" cops up there. I get a good laugh out of "radar detector" cops/busters. What do you think spanky and smarta$$?

I think it sucks! Our fine is more than ONT also. I think points for a detector is a level of BS beyond illegal detectors... I mean - it's an equipment of the car, how can you possibly be deducted points for that.

3 points, $186 fine, forfeiture of RD and worst of all the smug look on the Leos's face.

actualy, i got nailed last week.

Stoped on the highway for a train, minding me own business......cop was behind me, never noticed.....when i looked back he was putting his hat on....

Ticket was 170, it says 140, then final price 170...our tax go up or something? lol

Oh and i lost me cobra :( oh well......


and even thoe im an employee of the goverment, does not meen i know my laws, i just know my computers :D and to think, i helped him (the officer who issued the offcen) with a problem before too! errr! :D
