Well, I sold my car on March 8th. Got back my license plate with me and have been refund for it on March 13th.

Now yesterday my mom in Montreal receives a letter from the City saying I didnt pay my parking ticket.

Date of the Infraction : April 12th !!!!!

Like WTF, It's impossible I didnt even have a car then and even more impossible that they saw this plate number on the street because its in my briefcase with my papers..... And this date is exactly my last day at work and for the time and the address they wrote on the paper I have about at least 60 witnesses that could tell them i wasnt there because I was saying goodbye to everybody...

I called the SAAQ. car insurance of Quebec, and the gentleman on the phone tells me I have to appear at one of the offices to get a copy of my Immatriculation file to get the paper that says that I dont have my vehicle since March 8th. Yeah right. At least I can sign a procuration for my mom, but I have yet to hear what the City has to say when I call them this afternoon after my husband brings me the paper that my mom faxed to him.

When you think you took care of everything before you left, you have to get more trouble because some ####### couldnt pass his writting lessons in 3th grade......

Bravo

Oh my oh my... seems like stupidity just runs rampant in MTL eh????? (No pun intended to fellow VJ'ers who live there) That's a total idiocy mephys!!! It's hard to believe, yet it's not. Hope it all works out!!!
L.

Yeah next time I go back to Montreal for a visit I will have the police waiting for me at the customs to arrest me for a 42$ parking ticket on an invisible car...

lol

That is crazy!! I hope it all gets resolved quickly.

Hey! you can always write a book about it!!!! LOL Glad to see you're in good spirits and not taking these suckers too seriously!!!

Wouldn't they then have to coordinate with TWO OTHER bunches of CF's--CIC and CRCA?

Lord, I can't tell you the problems Derek has had with SAAQ. Well, I could tell you, but I might lose my mind all over again.

But hey, at least they make the Virginia DMV look good in comparison!

The problem was not the SAAQ, it was the city of montreal municipal court.

I called them this morning and found out it was a writting mistake and its another person and another car. All I have to do is fax them a letter saying I plead non guilty and explain the mistake and also fax my letter from SAAQ that says my license was canceled in March.

One less thing to worry again, that I shouldnt have had to worry about in the first place....



Im not a criminal!!!! yay!

so sorry to hear about your experience , but eh yeah hmmm I live here and eh yeah there are some stupid people here but then again theyr is stupidity all over I guess the french just make it a lil more obviouse that the world needs stupid people to make the smart people stand out . lol I doubt you gona get arrested at the border they usualy got smart people workin there , lol Lona

Yeah Quebec's special like that... all kinds of things that should be easy are made hard for no logical reasons.

Im glad to see everything's resolved. Go figure that it's their mistake, yet you still have to plead non guilty, even when they know you aren't

hehe.. glad it's solved now..

but I did giggle a little from your original post

lol who dug that one out

Anyways yup havent heard from them after I faxed the papers. I guess Im free of any charges.
