Licence Plate Obstruction
Good Morning,
On Friday I was pulled over in Toronto by an officer for rolling through a stop sign. The officer had me on a dash cam, and she was recording our conversation. I explained I know I should have stopped and after running my plates and licence, she decided not to give me a ticket for rolling through the stop sign as my record was really good. Instead she gave me an obstruction of licence plate as I have dealer tags around my licence plate. She said it was in violation of the Ontario Highway Act. I was really unsure as to what she was talking about, and she showed me. She said that if I'm on the 407 they may have a hard time reading my plates. In my head though, I knew I was on the 407 before and have been billed. This is the first time I have even heard of the violation. I didn't want to contest anything because she let me off the hook.
Apparently it's a charge that can affect my insurance rate. I've never been to court and don't know much of the proceedings, but my dad said I should go fight it. Is this fightable? Should I go for option 2 or 3 (2nd option is meeting early with a prosecutor)?
Thank you
