Small Vessel Regulation Ticket go toward your drivers license?
so I got a tick for not having enough life jackets ($250) on my boat this past weekend (I left it on shore, I was 1 short).
Yah stupid, I know. This ticket doesn't go towards my drivers license does it? He didn't even write my drivers license down..... |
I think it only goes towards your license if its a crimial offence (ie: drunk or careless)
PDF is just a fine, same with open alcohol... |
cool....well not cool.....stupid fine really when I was about 600 yards from my dock. and you could see the life jacket around the pole where I put it when I flew in to get the drift sock.
|
Yeah im sure its just a fine, but I can't find it written online.
The OPP on the water have a reputation for being rather strict. If you get caught drunk and operating, bye bye drivers license for a year and all that comes with it (fines, insurace, training program, interlock..) |
shouldnt go towards your car license.

He did give me a break and wrote me a different fine which was $120 instead of $250 because you could see the life jacket flapping in the wind on my dock. lol |
That sucks Steve. Yes, they do regulate strict fines as stated above. It's basically like not having a seatbelt on even though the car is already equipped with it.
Seatbelts = Life saver Life jackets = Life saver |

Lol. You know what? If you had them on you and pulled them out while he/she was writting the fine, you might've gotten off with having a good sense of humour. Lol.

He probably would have gotten the max fine and a more thorough inspection.:D

i forgot my paddles on shore as well and i didn't get busted for that :)
|
You got off easy. Was booze in plain sight?
|
He didnt get a booze ticket, so I'm thinking they were dry.
If you have open pop or water bottles they will smell them too. |
nah, i don't bring booze on the boat, i didn't drink this weekend.
I usually ALWAYS follow the rules, the one time that I forgot. fawk |
