  • Having a fictitious, imitation, or altered driver’s licences
  • Having a cancelled or suspended driver’s licence
  • Displaying a driver’s licence that is not your own

Why Fight a Driving Without a Licence Charge?

1. Protect Your Driving Record


Traffic violations, including the associated number of demerit points, are recorded on your driver’s abstract. Accumulating demerit points may result in your licence being suspended, or even revoked.

2. Avoid Higher Insurance Premiums


Your driver’s abstract is monitored by the Government of Ontario and is used by insurance companies to determine your insurance premiums. Traffic violations and the associated number of demerit points are recorded on your driver’s abstract, which may result in increased insurance costs.

Steps to Take When You Receive a Violation

If you received a traffic ticket, you typically have three options:

  1. Plead guilty and pay the fine,
  2. Seek early resolution to potentially reduce the penalty,
  3. Or choose to go to trial.

If you received a summons, you must appear at the scheduled date, time, and location indicated on your summons. At Patel Law PC, we would appear on this date for you, and take carriage of your matter.

3. Seek Legal Assistance
