Highway Traffic Act s.128
Speeding charges in Brampton, Ontario.
Quick Answer — Brampton
A speeding ticket in Ontario can be fought. Paying it is a guilty plea that adds demerit points and raises your insurance premiums for up to three years — often costing far more than the fine itself. A paralegal can request disclosure, challenge the speed measurement evidence, and negotiate a reduction or withdrawal at court.
A Brampton speeding ticket is heard at 5 Ray Lawson Boulevard, not at the Davis courthouse on Hurontario Street — Brampton has two active courthouses, and speeding is the highest-volume charge, so it is the one people most often take to the wrong building. Point Duty Traffic Court Defence appears at Ray Lawson regularly and will tell you which building your Brampton ticket belongs in before you lose a date over it.

Common Questions — Brampton
Where is a speeding charge heard in Brampton?
- Brampton speeding matters are heard at Brampton Provincial Offences Court, 5 Ray Lawson Boulevard, Brampton, ON L6Y 5L7. The court's number is (905) 450-4770. Point Duty appears there.
Who lays speeding charges in Brampton?

How long does a speeding charge take in Brampton?
- Point Duty Traffic Court Defence sees Peel traffic matters run 6 to 12 months from charge to resolution. It varies more here than it does in Toronto, where the range sits at the top of that band rather than across it.
How does the prosecutor handle speeding in Brampton?
- Peel prosecutors will resolve a matter either way. You can ask for an early resolution meeting, and the trial date is still a live opportunity to deal — a real difference from Toronto, where the prosecutors have been saying resolutions are not available on the date of trial. On a first offence the usual landing spot in Peel is a reduction to a lesser offence. Point Duty Traffic Court Defence works both openings at the Mississauga, Brampton and Caledon courts.
What else should I know about Brampton Provincial Offences Court?
- Reopenings can be emailed to the Peel Provincial Offences courts. That is worth knowing if you have dealt with Toronto, where a reopening has to be delivered in person and cannot be emailed. Peel has three separate POA courts — Mississauga on Burnhamthorpe Road, Brampton on Ray Lawson Boulevard and Caledon on Old Church Road — and your ticket goes to the one for the municipality where it was issued.
