| Ticket wasn’t physically given to me by the police officer
A few months ago I was caught speeding on highway one. I was trying to go fast and then brake to try and straighten warped rotors. Anyways that’s not the point.
I wasn’t physically given the ticket. I checked with ICBC approx on the 29th day after to try and pay it/contemplate disputing it see if I could get it lower.
Icbc said there was no ticket so I didn’t think much of it.
Now I went to renew my insurance and I’m forced to pay for the ticket or else I can’t renew. Is this even legal? Is there anything I can do? I ended up paying it since I need the vehicle but I find it ridiculous that the police officer didnt play fair and give me any options to get my fine lower.

So what was your interaction with the PO? How did you even know you got a ticket?
I got a ticket handed to me the next day once. UC PO didn't turn on his lights and couldn't catch up to me, as it would've been unsafe to do so. I didn't even know a cop saw my actions.
If you knew a ticket was issued, you shouldn't have waited til the 11th hour to do something about it. Lesson learned.
Also, you can't straighten warped rotors.

Nope. You're SOL.
Ticket was not disputed within allotted time frame.
Also, trying to go fast to straighten warped rotors? When did that become a thing...

I think you pretty much just replace rotors nowadays. It's usually not even worth it to machine them anymore.
If you are trying to seat new brake pads properly, then you do what OP did.
Anyway, are you sure you updated the address for your car? Maybe the ticket's sitting in a mailbox in your old address. I once had a warning letter sent to an old address I lived at and my old suitemates texted me to let me know. I picked up the letter and updated the address at ICBC the day after.

Different than a warning letter.

I didn’t want to say since I’m kinda embarrassed about it but I got an excessive speeding
Car got inpounded for a week.
But yeah I deffinetely was not given the ticket. I was given a big blue paper which had the info of the tow yard and when it would be released etc.
I was confused about it so I went to icbc approx 29 days after the incident but icbc said there was nothing which confused me even more.
IMO the cop was being a dick and did this in purpose. Whatever happened to equal treatment.

lol, if you were excessively speeding and told the cop you were doing so to try and straighten rotors, you got what you deserved.
Anyway, if your car was impounded on the spot, it's highly doubtful the PO didn't give you the ticket, unless he dropped it and it blew away or something, and he's trying to cover up. While the details (if true) do sound frustrating, there's really not much you can do about it, since you already paid the ticket anyway. And yes, ICBC can not renew your insurance if you have tickets outstanding. It's been that way forever.

If the ticket is not handed to you or placed near you (some refuse to take it in hand) then a certificate of service is filled out on the back of the front copy by the issuer. Usually that is done because the driver does not want to sign it or it is not convenient to ask for a signature. It takes time for the tickets to get to ICBC so if you checked before the Police sent it to the ticket processing centre, then they would have no record of it. Usually it gets there before the dispute cutoff. I would contact ICBC and ask some more questions about it as there obviously was a ticket.
