How a traffic charge works in Hamilton

Hamilton splits between the OPP on the 403 and the QEW, and Hamilton Police Service on the Lincoln Alexander Parkway (the Linc), the Red Hill Valley Parkway and city streets.

Every Highway Traffic Act charge laid inside the City of Hamilton is prosecuted from the one Provincial Offences office, so there is no ambiguity about where your matter is heard.

The Linc and the Red Hill are municipal expressways with lower posted limits than drivers expect coming off the 403, which is why they generate a disproportionate share of Hamilton speeding and stunt-driving charges.

However the ticket was issued, the three ways to respond are the same: pay the set fine, request an Early Resolution meeting with the prosecutor, or set the matter down for trial. Which is right depends on what the disclosure shows — see the charge you are facing for how each one is defended.

Traffic charges in Hamilton — common questions

Which court will hear my Hamilton ticket?

Hamilton Provincial Offences Court — 50 Main Street East, Suite 110, Hamilton, ON L8N 1E9. Which court hears a matter is decided by where the ticket was issued, not where you live, and it is printed on the notice you were served.

Do I have to attend court in Hamilton in person?

In most Provincial Offences matters, no. A licensed paralegal can appear on your behalf at Hamilton Provincial Offences Court, so you generally do not need to take a day off work. You would normally only attend in person if the matter goes to trial and your own evidence is required.

How do I get disclosure for a Hamilton ticket?

Disclosure — the officer's notes, any speed-measuring device records and calibration, and any video — is requested through the Provincial Offences office that administers Hamilton Provincial Offences Court. It is the foundation of any real defence, and nothing sensible can be decided about a charge before it has been reviewed.
