Penalties For Those Convicted of Drive Suspended:

If convicted of Driving Under Suspension under The Highway Traffic Act, an individual faces the possibility of:

  • A fine of $1,000 – $5,000 for a first offence.
  • A fine of $2,000 – $5,000 for a subsequent offence.
  • In addition the Court may impose a jail sentence up to six months.
  • An automatic Ministry Imposed Licence suspension of 6 months.

A “subsequent offence” is when an individual is convicted again for driving while suspended within five years of the first offence.

If you have been convicted of driving while your license has been suspended due to a Criminal Code of Canada violation, please see our Drive Disqualified page as this is not the same charge as Drive Suspended and carries different penalties.

these penalties may appear severe, but they are often defendable. Generally speaking, for first time offenders, a minor charge is achievable to avoid these serious ramifications to your license as well as your insurance.
