Why Stunt Driving and Street Racing Charges Are Different

Stunt driving and street racing charges in Ontario are treated far more seriously than standard speeding offences because they trigger immediate roadside penalties and carry significant long-term consequences. Unlike regular speeding tickets, these charges can result in an automatic roadside licence suspension and vehicle impoundment, even before your matter reaches court.

These offences are prosecuted under stricter provisions of the Highway Traffic Act, and convictions can lead to large fines, demerit points, extended licence suspensions, insurance cancellation or refusal, and lasting impacts on your driving record. Because the penalties begin immediately and escalate quickly, early legal guidance is critical. How the charge is handled from the start can directly affect what happens to your licence, your vehicle, and your future driving privileges.

Stunt driving and street racing allegations also rely heavily on technical evidence, officer observations, and procedural steps that must be followed precisely. That’s why these charges require a more strategic and thorough defence approach than an ordinary speeding ticket.



The Penalties Are Severe. The Consequences Are Immediate.

Stunt driving and street racing charges in Ontario carry some of the harshest penalties under the Highway Traffic Act, and many of them apply immediately at the roadside, before you ever appear in court.

These are not consequences you can pause or ignore—they begin right away and can escalate quickly if the charge is not handled properly.

You may be facing:

• Immediate roadside licence suspension (typically 30 days for a first allegation)
• Vehicle impoundment (often 14 days)
• Substantial fines upon conviction
• Six demerit points
• Extended licence suspension if convicted
• Major insurance consequences, including cancellation or refusal to renew
• A lasting impact on your driving record and employment, especially for commercial or professional drivers

Because the penalties start early and can affect multiple areas of your life at once, how you respond in the first days and weeks matters. A strategic defence focuses not only on the charge itself, but on minimizing disruption to your licence, vehicle access, and long-term driving privileges.



The Evidence That Can Make or Break Your Case

In stunt driving and street racing cases, the outcome often comes down to evidence — and timing. What the police recorded, how it was collected, and whether proper procedures were followed can significantly affect your case. That’s why early review is critical.

While every case is different, the most important documents and evidence typically include:

• Officer notes and observations (including how speed or driving behaviour was assessed)
• Speed measurement evidence, such as radar, lidar, pacing, or estimation methods
• Dash cam or body-worn camera footage, if available
• Disclosure from the Crown, including witness statements and calibration records
• Your driving history and licence status at the time of the charge
• Vehicle information, including ownership, modifications, and condition

Even small inconsistencies — missing calibration records, unclear observations, or procedural errors — can create leverage to challenge the charge, reduce penalties, or seek withdrawal.

You don’t need to collect everything on your own. Once we’re retained, we take the lead on requesting disclosure, reviewing evidence, and identifying weaknesses in the prosecution’s case. Our role is to ensure your rights are protected and that no detail is overlooked.

The earlier the evidence is reviewed, the more options you may have.

Speaking with a licensed Ontario paralegal early can make a measurable difference in the outcome.
