Statutory Text

9.1 (1) Every person who knowingly, in or with any application, declaration, affidavit or document that is required under this Act or by the Ministry, submits, displays, presents or surrenders a vehicle identification number that is false, is guilty of an offence and on conviction, in addition to any other penalty or punishment to which the person may be liable, is liable to any of the following or any combination of the following:

A set fine is not the same as a court sentencing range. Standard totals include the surcharge and $5 service costs where a fixed set fine is listed. Court penalties and extra costs may differ.

No-set-fine entries and variable formulas remain uncalculated. A blank amount does not mean there is no penalty.

Demerit Points

Unassigned — not zero

not mapped — not zero. A general provision match does not settle the result for a particular licence or conviction.

Driving Record and Insurance

A driving conviction may affect insurance even when it carries no demerit points. Insurance treatment depends on the conviction and the insurer. A charge-specific insurance assessment has not yet been added to this record.

An early resolution that includes a guilty plea may still leave a conviction on your driving record. That conviction may affect your insurance rates, even if the fine or demerit points are reduced.
