Speeding & Excessive Speeding
Radar, photo radar, or excessive-speed charges — the most common ticket on prairie highways.
Often resolved without a court appearance. Excessive-speed matters carry higher stakes and get priority review.
Before You Pay It
The fine may be immediate, but the impact on your driving record and insurance can last much longer. Prairie Tickets helps you understand your options and handles your traffic matter from start to finish.
Start with a free case review. A conviction can follow you for years on your insurance. Our traffic agents handle the file — the paperwork, the calls, the court dates — so you don’t have to.
Free case review, no obligation.
01 · Why We Exist
Traffic tickets can be stressful, confusing, and far more costly than they first appear. For many drivers, the easiest option feels like simply paying the fine and moving on. The problem is that a conviction can carry consequences beyond the ticket itself, including demerits, increased insurance costs, licence suspensions, and a lasting impact on your driving record.
Prairie Tickets was created to give drivers a clear place to turn when they are unsure what to do next.
We help clients understand the charge they are facing, what the potential consequences may be, and what options are available. From reviewing the ticket and requesting disclosure to handling communication, paperwork, negotiations, and court appearances where permitted, we work to make the process as straightforward as possible.
We believe drivers should be able to make informed decisions about their traffic matters without feeling overwhelmed by the system.
Our goal is simple: provide clear information, responsive service, and strong representation throughout the process, while making sure every client understands what is happening with their file.

03 · The Prairie Tickets Process
Four steps. Real agents. You never set foot in court.
Snap a photo of your ticket and tell us your province and ticket type. That's all it takes to get your file started.
A traffic agent looks at your ticket, court date, and circumstances, then gives you a clear, honest read on your options.
You don't need to show up. We file the paperwork, negotiate with the Crown, and appear in court on your behalf where permitted.
Reduced, dismissed, or the fine cut down — we work to shield you from insurance hikes and demerit points wherever we can.
04 · Demerit Points
Demerit points get added to your driving record on conviction — not on the day you're ticketed. Enough of them, and your licence gets suspended. Here's how it breaks down.
Points before suspension · Class 5–6 (fully licensed)
Warning letter sent at 8 points. First suspension: one month.
Points before suspension · Class 7 & GDL / probationary
Warning letter sent at 4 points. First suspension: one month.
How long points stay on your record
Counted from your conviction date, not the ticket date.
| Points | Common offences |
|---|---|
| 7 | Leaving the scene of a collision |
| 6 | Speeding 51+ km/h over the limit · careless driving · failing to stop for a school bus |
| 5 | Failing to stop at a railway crossing · not providing information to police after a collision |
| 4 | Speeding 31–50 km/h over · failing to yield to a pedestrian · following too closely |
| 3 | Speeding 16–30 km/h over · running a red light · failing to report an accident |
