Highway Traffic Act Section 139 (1)
- Required yielding under Ontario’s Highway Traffic Act:
- When entering a roadway from another road (s. 139.1).

Penalties for Failing to Yield
Penalties include fines, with amounts varying based on the case, and 3 demerit points.

This applies to both other vehicles and pedestrians.

I shopped around with a few known Traffic Ticket Paralegals and chose JUSTICEJOLT© Traffic Tickets because they listened to me and gave me clear options. There were no false promises and nor did they give me any hopes. I want to thank them for getting my charges dismissed and saving my demerits. I will recommend JUSTICEJOLT© to anyone who has received a Traffic Ticket and wants to fight it.
Hi Folks, I can’t thank you enough for you assistance in this matter. I am retired and have a great part time job driving customers to and from the dealership. It was important that I keep a great driving record. The JUSTICEJOLT© team put my mind at easy and always communicated in a prompt manner. The process off signing up and paying for the service were flawless online. Thanks Again for everything.
I called JUSTICEJOLT© and spoke with one representative and she was wonderful. They are very helpful, honest and are efficient with their communications. The representative that I had really did get me the best outcome possible given my situation. I would definitely choose them over X-Copper. That amazing!! 10 stars out of 5! Thank you so much. Hopefully won’t need your services in the future, but if I do there will be no hesitation.
