Скачать или смотреть 14-Day Stunt Driving Impound: Your Essential Guide

Hi, I'm Jonathan Cohen from Next Law. If you've just been charged with stunt driving in Ontario, your car is probably sitting in an impound lot right now. Let me explain exactly what's happening and what you need to know about the 14-day impound.

 WHAT HAPPENS AT THE ROADSIDE?

 When an officer charges you with stunt driving, three things happen immediately. First, they take your license for 30 days. Second, they impound your vehicle for 14 days, and third, you get a court date. There's no negotiating with the officer. This all happens automatically under section 1 72 of the Highway Traffic Act.

 THE IMPOUND PROCESS

 Your car goes to an approved tow yard and you're responsible for all costs. That's typically $150 to $200 for towing plus daily storage fees upwards of $70 per day. Do the math - you're looking at $1200 to $2,000 just to get your car back after 14 days - even if you beat the charge in court later.

 GETTING YOUR VEHICLE BACK

 After 14 days you can retrieve your vehicle by paying all fees and showing proper identification. You don't need to wait for your court date, but remember, getting your car back doesn't mean your case is over. You still face serious penalties if convicted, including massive fines and a one year license Suspension.

 The 14-day impound is just the beginning of your stunt driving case. If you're facing these charges, contact NextLaw immediately. We focus exclusively on defending these cases and know how to protect your rights. Don't face this alone.
