夜里急着回家,在401上超速,被开了罚单。罚单上写:根据Highway Traffic Act 128,在时速为100KM的路上超速为129KM。然后set fine 为$108.75,算了一下每超速1公里罚款额为3.75.
在网上学习了下关于高速超速罚款,看了些同学的例子,不过时间上都是几年前的了。总结下来,我的感觉是我被开的这张告票是废票?理由是罚单上使用的法规和所对应的罚款金额不符。
(还曾有一个相似的法院判例:2008年安省上訴庭就R. v. Young上訴的判定)
Highway Traffic Act 128然后 Penalty(14)
Every person who contravenes this section or any by-law or regulation made under this section is guilty of an offence and on conviction is liable, where the rate of speed at which the motor vehicle was driven,
(a) is less than 20 kilometres per hour over the speed limit, to a fine of $3 for each kilometre per hour that the motor vehicle was driven over the speed limit;
(b) is 20 kilometres per hour or more but less than 30 kilometres per hour over the speed limit, to a fine of $4.50 for each kilometre per hour that the motor vehicle was driven over the speed limit;
根据以上,超速29KM是应该每公里罚款4.5。
而每公里罚款3.75是根据Ontario Court of Justice Schedule 43, schedule B的标准
SPEEDING -- SET FINE AMOUNT
Kilometres SET FINE
a) 1-19 kilometres per hour over the maximum speed limit $2.50 per kilometre
b) 20-29 kilometres per hour over the maximum speed limit $3.75 per kilometer
