Motor Vehicle Fine Payments

One Stop Licence Shop accepts payments both current and outstanding(overdue)tickets.

Current Tickets:

A fine is considered current if it is paid or resolved on time, either on or before the due date, or if you appear in traffic court before the due date to contest the ticket. Current fines are issued on Part 3 Offence Notices and are not overdue. They are issued for moving violations such as speeding, improper turns, running red lights, not wearing a seat belt and photo radar infractions. Other fines include non-moving offences such as parking offences.

To pay current traffic ticket, you must bring your original yellow motor vehicle violation ticket and provide acceptable identification.

The Alberta government does not accept cheques for your fine payments so only cash, debit or credit cards can be accepted. Service charges apply to all fine payments.

Outstanding (Overdue) Tickets

If you have not paid your motor vehicle fine for a moving (e.g. speeding) or non-moving (e.g. parking) offence or have not appeared in traffic court by the due date on the summons, you may be convicted in your absence. The motor vehicle fine then becomes overdue, a late penalty is added to the fine and your motor vehicle file is restricted. Any overdue motor vehicle fines must be paid before any motor vehicle service(for example, driver's licence renewals and vehicle registrations) can be provided to you.

An accumulation of five or more outstanding fines or fines totalling more than $500 will result in suspension of your opertator's licence.

It takes several days for an overdue fine to appear on your motor vehicle record. During that time, we are unable to accept payment of your fine. Contact us to confirm that the fine appears onyour record and for the amount owning, including late penalties.
