Financial & Personal Consequences
A “careless driving” conviction can result in significant increases to your vehicle insurance rates, and the increase can last for at least three years from the date of conviction. Insurance companies consider careless driving a major offence, and it may result in a significant hike in your insurance premiums. The increase in rates will depend on the severity of the offence, the number of demerit points received, and the driver’s overall driving record. In some cases, the insurance company may even decide to cancel the policy or refuse to renew it.

I will recommend POINTTS™ to anyone who has received a Traffic Ticket and wants to fight it.
