| ICBC penalty points / premium
Can someone help me understand how this works. My situation as follows:
Jan 9 2013 - Jan 9 2014
- illegal u-turn ticket (ticket paid)
- hov lane (disputed)
jan 9 2014 - jan 9 2015
- speeding 70 in a 50 zone (to be paid or disputed)
what can I expect?
where do I stand as far as premiums , driver risk premiums , suspensions , etc are concerned?
Jan 9 is my 'bday'
have 10 years of experience (does this even matter?)

Why the fuck would you dispute an HOV ticket, other than to clog the courts and waste money?!

I will not go into more details than that. It was a case where teaching would've been more effective than punishing.

For those that need to know:
ICBC does a scan 5 months prior to your b'day for violations. So if your bday is in Jan, the scan period is Aug to Aug. If you have 3 points on record, no issues. If you have 4 or higher - read the above chart. If a ticket has been disputed the judgement date will be used to enter it into the system if it benefits you, you can ask for this. Or they can back date it allowing you to pay a lower surcharge.

I mean why else would anyone else dispute speeding tickets. Either you went 1km over or you didn't, and we know everyone does. Even the JP warns those who are about to dispute speeding tickets that that they have to prove they did NOT travel 1km over the speed limit. No one ever does.

Sorry buddy, ignorance isn't a defence. What a tool...

When I paid points before. They gave 3 points for free, than anything over that was like 100 dollars for every 2-3 points. So if you disputed hov ticket, and the other is in dispute. I don't think you'll get any extra fees prior to your birthday. This is how it was for 8 years ago though.

I love how they give you 3 points for free, except for excessive speed. If you have one excessive speeding ticket they hammer you with the DRP for like 325 bucks for 3 years.
It does really drive the lesson of that ticket home.
