This is to anyone with some knowledge with these tickets. I received a ticket for open alcohol in my vehicle under the L.L.A. and was informed by a friend of mine who doesn't have a driver's license that he has had the same ticket while being a passenger and has never paid the ticket to date. I'd imagine he might have trouble getting his license if he ever decides to one day.
As for me, if I just decide not to pay the ticket, will I get my driver's license suspended like it states on the conviction notice?

LLA offences do not appear on your drivers abstract, therefore they are not likely to prevent you from getting your licence. However, there are still methods that the government can use to collect - such as collection agencies.

Thank you sir, I'm cool with paying the fine, just not in the time i was given and wouldn't like if it resulted in a suspension which would be another $150

Here is a link to the City of Toronto's website that details how they collect unpaid fines.

What if he urinated in the bottle? I would fight it, order disclosure then make your decision on what to do.
