Quebec's traffic court system is entirely different than Ontario's. For example, in Quebec the officer does not have to show up to testify. They can take the officer's notes, prosecute and convict you on that alone... and the success rate is very, very high. There are additional administrative fees...

I'm in the same situation - almost 3 years between offense and court date in QC for speeding. Has anyone won 11b challenge in Quebec after speeding violation? People say it's almost unreal in Quebec...
