“Fail To Yeild To Pedestrian Fatal Error On Ticket?”

I made a right hand turn at an intersection at night and it was raining (no overhead lights at corner) and a pedestrian walked out in front of me. I bumped him and he fell down. He was sent to the hospital to get checked out and released a short time later ( no injuries, broken bones etc.) The police officier wrote up the ticket and wrote the wrong fine amount (error of $65.00)

Is this a fatal error that will kill the ticket if i do not respond after 15 days?

any comments would be appreciated

Give us the actual charge wording, section number, set fine and total payable and I'm sure we can give you a more accurate answer.

Hi

The charge was "Faili to yield to pedestrian"

section 140(1)(a)

set fine was $85.00

Total payable was $110.00

Thanks for any help

ontario court of justice, set fines here http://www.ontariocourts.on.ca/ocj/en/s ... dule43.doc

says should be $150 + victim surcharge

is the error of set fine a fatal error. has anyone got thier ticket quashed for such an error?
