Failure to Blow Charge Ontario

A Failure to Blow Charge in Ontario is Very Serious

Did you know that in Ontario, the mandatory minimum fine for refusing a breath test is actually higher than the fine for a first-time impaired driving conviction? It's a harsh reality of the current judicial system, where a single moment of confusion at the roadside can lead to a mandatory $2,000 fine and a permanent criminal record.


If you're currently facing a failure to blow charge Ontario, you're likely feeling the immediate weight of a 90-day licence suspension and the intense stress of how a conviction might end your career.


Key Takeaways From This Post

  • Understand that a refusal is a distinct criminal offence under Section 320.15(1) that often carries more severe mandatory penalties than a standard impaired driving charge.

  • Mandatory Alcohol Screening laws allow Ontario police to demand a breath sample without prior suspicion, making immediate legal representation essential for your defence.
