FIGHT COMMERCIAL VEHICLE TICKETS IN ALBERTA.
A Commercial Vehicle ticket isn’t just a fine; it’s your abstract, your employability, and your carrier’s safety profile all at once.
ONE TICKET. TWO RECORDS HIT.
For a commercial driver, a ticket isn’t just a fine. It’s your abstract, your employability, and your carrier’s safety profile all at once. That last one is what a lot of drivers and small carriers miss. Convictions attach to the carrier's record, not just the driver's.
Enough of them and you're looking at increased monitoring, audits, and interventions. For an owner-operator or a small fleet, that's an existential problem, not an administrative one.
These affect your employment and also the carrier profile for the company. Our team has officers who were specially trained in commercial vehicle, light vehicle, and dangerous goods inspection.
WHY COMMERCIAL TICKETS ARE DIFFERENT
Yours and the carrier's. A conviction that a private driver would shrug off can affect a carrier's safety rating.
Many employers and insurers set hard limits. A driver who's fine today can become uninsurable to their employer after one or two convictions.
Commercial policies price on driver records in a much more direct way than personal auto policies.
A unit sidelined at a scale is revenue lost that day, plus the downstream delivery failure.
These aren't fixed amounts — they can climb quickly depending on the overage weight and axle group configuration.

The classification of a defect as out-of-service follows defined criteria. Where the criteria weren’t properly applied, that’s challengeable. Send us the inspection report.
Then fight it. Don’t pay it. Payment is a guilty plea and there is nothing to undo afterward. Call us the day you get the ticket, not the week before court.
Often, yes. ELD data, exemptions, and the interaction between provincial and federal rules produce genuine ambiguity, and a lot of these charges rest on a reading of the data that doesn’t survive examination.
Yes. Members of our team handle out-of-province matters and have worked across Western Canada.
In most cases, no — which matters more for a commercial driver than almost anyone, because your time in court is time not driving.
