Additional information

Can I print substitute tickets for all my open TVB tickets?

Yes. Once you provide information for one open TVB traffic ticket, you will be able to print any open TVB traffic ticket(s) you have. You will need to print them one at a time.

 

Are substitute tickets I print from this transaction the same as tickets printed at a TVB office?

Yes. A substitute ticket that you print from this transaction has exactly the same information as tickets printed at a TVB office.

 

What can I do if my traffic ticket is not available?

If a traffic ticket is not available to print, the transaction will give you instructions on what you can do. Read all messages in the transaction carefully.

  1. 1. If the traffic ticket was not answerable to a Traffic Violations Bureau (TVB), you cannot use this transaction for the ticket. The TVB does not handle parking violations, criminal driving violations (for example, DWI) or tickets answerable in a local court.
  2. 2. If the ticket has been dismissed, or if there was a conviction and the fines, the fees and the surcharges were all paid, the ticket is a 'closed' ticket.
