The Impact of Demerit Points

It is important to remember that courts do not have jurisdiction to deal with Ontario demerit points. Traffic Law Paralegal Services can help you fight your traffic tickets to protect your record.

Some of the most serious violations actually do not carry any demerits. Offences such as driving without insurance or driving while suspended and many other violations are common examples.

Demerit points should not be your only consideration. If a traffic ticket conviction is registered on your abstract your insurance may be dramatically affected regardless of Ontario demerit points. One conviction for Careless driving may cancel your insurance premiums altogether. Drivers with G1 or G2 class licenses may face additional (in some cases hidden) suspensions as well.
