The charge Drive Disqualified comes into practice when an individual has been found guilty under the Criminal Code of Canada for an offence such as a Over 80, Impaired Driving, Dangerous Driving, Refusing Breath Sample, etc, where there has been a licence suspension imposed and has been caught driving during the term of the licence suspension.
These charges are negotiable, you do not have to be scared. Our highly knowledgeable Lawyers and Paralegals will do our best to negotiate the best outcome possible. If this is not possible, we will do everything in our power to have the charges reduced to a more minor offence. Sometimes both of these options are not possible. If that is the case, due to our strong and highly renowned reputation in the Courts we will do our best to have the penalties reduced as much as possible so that the ramifications on your license as well as insurance are not that great.
Here at the Traffic Lawyers ®, we understand that good people do make mistakes. We also understand that all cases are different and sometimes circumstances arise in which a person feels that they must drive and therefore encounters a Drive Disqualified charge.
A Drive Disqualified charge is considered a hybrid offence under the Criminal Code of Canada. The meaning of a “hybrid” offence is that it can be prosecuted by either indictment or by a summary conviction. The Crown/prosecution are the ones to decide if the charge is proceed summarily or by indictment. That decision is never left up to the defendant, but that does not mean these charges are not defendable or negotiable.

We will do everything in our power to mitigate the damages to you as an individual and will do our best to get you driving as soon as possible, as we at The Traffic Lawyers ® understand the importance of driving in ones life.
