Am I the only one who hopes they don't reduce it? I dont' know how long you have been driving but registration is due the same time every year, its not rocket science. And its not like it was expired by only a few days but September?? You forgot, I get it-we are all busy, but its a 100% legit, deserved ticket.

[max_boost]

Lol okay bro.

To answer your question, you probably aren’t the only one who hopes it doesn’t get reduced but props to you, you actually said it haha

No kidding.

So glad the world is a safer place due this cop harassing the OP. Now go pay your ticket so you can learn your lesson. The lesson being to, uhhh, umm, do what the gubernment tells you, or else!

I think you got off easy. 15-20 years ago I got pulled over for expired registration 2 blocks from my house. I was ticketed and the cops impounded my car.

Exact and thing happened to me in the Peg when I lived there. Was literally a snow balls throw away from my house. Cop would have none of any excuse. Ticketed and towed literally right away. Luckily officer DNF so once I saw the JP as a starving Red River student it was thrown out. ( it’s a brutal fine)

I have always setup a reminder in my calendar for mine (I do forget) but I thought these tickets were the type where you could show up to court, explain that you forgot and if it's your first time, show them you did get the car registered for another year and they judge says "ok" and cancels the ticket. If you do it every year then you get the book thrown at you.

Werd. Buddy got the same. Tow and impound.
Consider the $300 ticket and easy win.

[max_boost]

Holy shit that's savage. Tow and impound?!

Is the expired registration ticket the same as not having registration on you? I one forgot to put my registration papers in my car after someone the car and I was fined $187, $300 seems steep.

It's different.

My car registration was expired. $310

Yours was registered but you didn't have the slip in the car. $187

Heck she could have given me a ticket for having expired registration AND expired insurance papers too.

Always be nice when pulled over.

Such a cunty ticket. Registyration is basically for nothing more than to prove ownership. If I register it when I buy it, why do I ever need to register it again? I asked a cop that one time when I missed my renewal by 3 days. I said "So do they still know where to send my photo radar tickets?" Yes of course. "Ok, so why do I need a fine for this? Can't you just give me a friendly reminder that I forgot and I'll go take care of it? Who has been served or protected through this interaction?" Fuck you and have a nice day with your 300$ ticket. It's basically a revenue generation ticket, with a slight check and balance to keep dummies from driving around with no insurance. Which is another farce, why do I have to show insurance proof before I can get my proof of ownership? Why am I even allowed to insure something the Province does not recognize as me owning yet? Seems like a set up for insurance fraud. You can technically handwrite yourself a BOS for your neighbors car, go get insurance, then burn his car down to collect the insurance, all without ever registering the thing. Yay Alberta!

Aren't most tickets basically revenue generation tickets? That's how I see them anyways.

Alberta isn't as bad as Ontario. Talking on the cell there can get you a $1,000 ticket for first offense, $2,000 for second etc.

At least you didn’t get frisked

I agree with those fines. Get off your damn phone when driving.. not needed. $1000 is cheap considering what you could do.

Good fine amounts, as long as they are being enforced.
Calgary has $500 fines for littering, $750 for throwing garbage from a car, and $1000 for cigarette butts thrown out a window but how many of these do you see these being handed out? I don't get the point of having stiff penalties if they aren't being actually enforced.

If I was a cop and wanted to generate revenue, I'd be a fucking rock star from what I see on a day-to-day basis. Those would be tickets I would have 0 shame giving out.

This use to be a $200 ticket.. I would get a lot of these when I was young... usually cause I switched cars so often... and to register the new one I would have to pay $$$$ to clear up outstanding tickets. For some reason the excuse of “well if you stopped giving me tickets then I could register the car” didn’t work, nor did “I’m actually driving to the registry right now” ... one time that was actually true also
