Defence in Pickering.
Pickering traffic tickets are heard at the Durham Provincial Offences Court in Whitby; criminal matters at the Durham Region Courthouse in Oshawa.
Pickering is the first Durham municipality east of Toronto, and the boundary matters more than most drivers realise. A ticket is heard where it was written, not where the driver lives. A Pickering resident stopped on the Toronto side of the Rouge goes to Toronto's court, while a ticket written in Pickering itself, by Durham Regional Police on Kingston Road, Brock Road or Liverpool Road or by the OPP on the 401 or 407, goes to the Durham Provincial Offences Court at 605 Rossland Road East in Whitby.
Criminal charges from Pickering are heard at the Durham Region Courthouse at 150 Bond Street East in Oshawa, which handles every criminal matter in the region.
Durham's courts work much the way Peel's and York's do, for tickets and criminal matters alike, so a Pickering client can expect a familiar process: on a first-offence ticket a reduction is usually available through early resolution. Point Duty handles Pickering speeding tickets, stunt driving charges and criminal matters such as assault at both Durham courts. The first call is free.
