Before you respond
Preserve the Details That Matter to Your Defence
Check the exact charge
Keep both sides of the ticket and record the section, location and response instructions. A disobey-sign allegation under section 182(2) is not interchangeable with disobey stop sign, a red-light charge or failing to yield.
Preserve the scene safely
If safe and lawful, photograph the approach, sign position, visibility and any hours or exceptions shown. Keep original dashcam footage and note the date, time and direction of travel. Do not stop unsafely or enter the road to gather evidence.
Write down what happened
Record the route, manoeuvre and traffic conditions while they are fresh. Keep witness contact details privately for your representative. A photograph or a missed sign does not automatically establish a defence.
Act before the response date
A standard offence notice normally requires a response within 15 days of receipt. Read your own document: a summons can require attendance on a specified date. Call ParaCan for a free review; sending an inquiry does not file a response or confirm representation.
Questions drivers ask
Clear Answers About Your Charge
What does a disobey-sign ticket mean in Ontario?
Read the wording and statutory section on the document. The Ontario court set-fine schedule identifies disobey sign under Highway Traffic Act section 182(2). The sign, its instructions and the alleged driving manoeuvre need review; other sign-related allegations can be charged under different provisions.
How many demerit points does a disobey-sign conviction carry?
A conviction under HTA section 182(2) carries two demerit points. Points follow conviction, not the issue of a ticket. Do not apply that value to every sign-related ticket: disobey stop sign and other offences have their own point values.
What is the fine for disobey sign in Ontario?
The Ontario Court of Justice schedule lists an $85 set fine for section 182(2), or $120 for its community-safety-zone entry, before applicable surcharges and costs. A set fine is not the total payable or a quote for legal representation. Check the exact allegation and amount on your document.
Can ParaCan fight my disobey-sign ticket?
Yes. ParaCan reviews Ontario disobey-sign charges, the available evidence and defence or resolution options. We assess the notice, sign details and disclosure rather than promising a result. Call now or send your ticket for a free, no-obligation case review.
Will two points automatically make my insurance increase?
No fixed insurance result can be predicted from the points alone. A conviction may matter to an insurer even when the point total is low. Ask your insurer about your policy, and have the exact charge reviewed before deciding how to respond.
How much does representation cost?
Rates start from just $399 for Part I tickets and $499 for Part III offences. Your fee depends on the charges, driving history, complexity and services required. ParaCan confirms your quoted fee before you retain us. Call now for your free case review; legal fees are separate from court fines and costs.
