Frequently Asked Questions
What happens if you get caught stunt driving in Ontario?
Stunt driving results in immediate 30-day licence suspension, 14-day vehicle impound, 6 demerit points, fines from $2,000-$10,000, possible licence suspension up to 2 years on conviction, and potential jail time up to 6 months.
Is 50 over always stunt driving?
Going 50+ km/h over the speed limit is automatically considered stunt driving in Ontario. On roads with limits under 80 km/h, going 40+ over can also be charged as stunt driving. The threshold was recently lowered from 50 to 40 in some zones.
Can stunt driving charges be reduced?
Yes, with proper defence, stunt driving charges can sometimes be reduced to regular speeding or other lesser offences. The key is challenging the speed measurement, officer observations, and procedural compliance. We have successfully defended many stunt driving cases.
How long will this affect my insurance?
A traffic conviction typically affects insurance rates for 3 years from conviction date. Impact varies by insurer and offence. Fighting often costs less than long-term insurance increase.
