Question 4

Can you help me contest a speeding ticket in Edmonton?

Question 9

Will contesting my ticket affect my insurance in Alberta?

Accepted Answer

Contesting a ticket does not negatively affect your insurance. In fact, successfully reducing or eliminating a ticket can protect your driving record and prevent insurance rate increases that would otherwise result from demerit points under Alberta's Driver's Licence system.

Question 10

I've already paid my ticket. Can you still help?
