So I got pulled over on Sunday at 2am after literally 2 beers. The officer had me take a breathalyzer test. I blew a warning and the cop gave me a Notice Of Suspension (3 day suspension), which as far as i know is just administrative from everything i've read. What i am wondering is because i am under the age of 22 but have a full G licence (F class actually), will i be subject to additional suspension (30 Day) and fines (60-500$) when i go to reinstate my licence. The Officer said i was not being charged with anything and would only have to pay any administrative fees. So if i was not charged, can i assume i was not convicted and will not have to pay those fees? Thanks!

If you're 21 and under, full license or not, you are required to have a BAC level of zero. No alcohol whatsoever. Pretty sure you should have been charged for that.

I agree that you should/could have gotten a fine for Young Driver with alcohol. For fines/fees/convictions that's not how it works: not having been charged only means you didn't get the $110 fine for Young Drivers. Reinstatement is independent from a charge, and you will have to pay the fee for sure, $198 I believe. I'm not sure if Young drivers have an extra 30 day suspension. I know Novice drivers definitely do, but if you have a full class I can't say. Finally, yes it will appear on your DL record but not as a conviction, as a Warn Prior, which means if you get pulled over again and blow Warn you will be suspended for 7 days instead of 3. It will be on your record for 5 years. Hope this helps.

Just got back from service Ontario. They reinstated my licence with the 198$ fee. Hopefully that's the end of it. Won't be making that mistake again. Thanks for all the input.

I'm hoping somebody can point me in the right direction to track down various radar gun error codes.
