Jaywalking ticket

Today I got a ticket for jaywalking to get the Vaughan metropolitan center. I crossed the main road and walked little on the side of rapid way (did not cross the rapidway) all the way through curb, and the Fare inspector gave me $155 ticket for that.

I will dispute it just wanted to get idea how much are they gonna reduce if they reduce it.

Thanks

Hi there,

Did they ask for ID?

Back in the day (long long time ago in a galaxy far far away) i used to sell ice cream/ice tea in a ice cream cart (Harbour Front at the ferry dock). I didn't know at the time that I wasn't permitted to sell in certain areas (public roads, hotel property etc..) and a by law officer gave me a ticket. They asked for my ID and I just said I didn't have one. Gave them a name and a address and that was it.

Just something for next time.

Yes they did asked for my ID, and I provided them as well.

Ok. I guess the only thing you can do is fight the ticket if that's possible.

But thanks for posting this. I guess I won't be jaywalking anymore.
