Local context

An island north of Montreal with heavy transit traffic via the bridges to Montreal and the Laurentians. A municipal court distinct from Montreal's. For photo-radar locations, see the official quebec.ca map.

Laval, a north-shore crossroads

Set on Île Jésus, Laval is an unavoidable link between Montreal and the Laurentians. Transit traffic concentrates on Highway 15 (des Laurentides), Highway 440 (Jean-Noël-Lavoie) crossing the city east to west, and Highways 13, 19 and 25 leading to the bridges. Many tickets are issued to commuters merely passing through Laval at rush hour.

On the urban boulevards — des Laurentides, Saint-Martin, Curé-Labelle — come speeding in 50 km/h zones, red lights and handheld-phone offences. Whether you live in Laval or drive in from another region, an offence committed on Laval territory falls under its municipal court.

Pleading at the Laval Municipal Court

The Laval Municipal Court (55 des Laurentides Blvd) is a separate body from Montreal's: a Laval file is not resolved at 775 Gosford Street. The not-guilty plea is filed within 30 days, by mail or at the court counter. Paying the ticket without a plea amounts to admitting guilt.

After the plea is received, a hearing notice is mailed to you. Demerit points are managed by the SAAQ and apply the same way as elsewhere in Quebec — contesting is often the only way to keep them off your record.

A ticket received while passing through Laval

Many drivers stopped in Laval do not live there: they commute between the Laurentians and Montreal. The place of the offence sets the competent court — a speeding ticket on Highway 440 or the A-25 bridge falls under Laval, even if you live elsewhere. You will therefore deal with the Laval Municipal Court, not the one in your own city.

Wherever you live in Quebec, demerit points go on the same SAAQ record and the revocation thresholds stay the same. A ticket picked up "in passing" is not trivial: it counts just as much as an offence committed near home.
