I've done this before. If the driver actually did something illegal (which it sounds like he did), report it to the police, and they will speak to him and possibly charge him. The only criteria is that you have to be able to identify him as the driver of the vehicle (which you also seem to be able to do). The charges will have to be proved in court, but basically, you'll have the police do your dirty work. There's probably more of an effect on his parents if cops come to the door.goodtime said:
Get Address for License Plate
- Thread starter CocoCat
- Start date
Just to confirm...
My company has many legal reasons to get these plate checks done and we pay a hefty fee for it and have to sign an affidavit that the search is for a legal reason. If anyone has indeed done a plate search recently (last 6 months)and received the owners name and address in Ontario with little fuss... please let me know as it could save us a few bucks!

oh yeah this is really good advice, lol, like the cops have the time and manpower to hunt down and charge all the bad drivers who cut people off, besides that's not a criminal offence, it's a traffic offence (and then there is the other drivers story and the truth). the only thing you can do is report it to traffic and they may or may not send out a letter to the owner of the licence plate.
Just forget about it. As long as you were proactive and avoided a collision then you still come out the winner and no one got hurt. Be glad for that. Also be glad he was not a nutcase and took action on you.
This one time I was stuck in the parking lot at Bayview Village. There was a major jam and the cars were not goign anywhere. I was only about 10M from the exit, but I was just stuck along with about 40 other cars. The car behind me kept honking me. Like non-stop honking...beeeeeeeep...beeeeeeep. This went on for about 3 minutes. I couldn't take it anymore so I got out of my car and walked over to her. I heard her saying in her car (window open), "Oh great...I bet he can't drive." I got to her window and said, "Hey you fucking bitch try honking that horn one more time, or else I'll make sure you don't honk that horn anymore." She honked it and flicked me off. She was in her mid-40's. I smiled then kicked both her headlights in. She freaked and then sat there quietly. I was young and dangerous at the time. I hope she doesn't remember my plate number.

Go to one of the service ontario kiosks (they're at a bunch of malls like fairview or at the td centre downtown). There's an option for choosing to renew your licence plate sticker - use that one. You have to put in your credit card first and then it pulls up the name and address of the plate holder. Write down the info and then cancel the transaction (sort of like if you entered the wrong plate number). CC won't be charged and no one will know!

That sounds great. Will try with my own plate first to see if it works. Quite a "hole" in the system! Thanks very much.

pure BS, ministry of transportation requires id/drivers licence for any transaction, I am sure they are aware of stalkers and all kinds of crazies trying a con, they'd be asking for a lawsuit real quick, especially when people like Juldet show up at someones home, trying to lecture their kids. BTW : almost everytime I drive in Toronto I get cut off, I'd say at least a couple of times per drive, so it's just part of driving/defensive driving, things you have to watch out for...you know something that happens everyday to alot of people. There really is no need to be so obsessed about this, let it go, focus on the positive and next time someone waves you in come back and tell us about it.terbguy said:

Without getting into details here about my firm or line of business, a part of our business is to help companies, that have been screwed by other companies or individuals that do not want to be found. Like I said, we have to have a paper trail, affidavits etc to confirm the investigation is for a legal purpose.
With all the changes now ie Privacy Act etc it makes it harder for the good guys to do their job and the bad guys are laughing all the way to the bank. If we can get a break on these professional crooks why not?
Now if someone cuts you off and you want their number to call them and harass them I do not condone that as acceptable behaviour. I am sure Fabulous did not mean me as a good example for his post.

I just tried terbguy's idea. I live near a mall where they have a Service Ontario kiosk. I picked a random plate out of the mall's parking lot. Unfortunately, the plate needs to be up for renewal in order to see details on the system - I then tried with mine to confirm, as mine still has over a year to go and I couldn't bring-up my own information. The only way you can access info with just a credit card appears to be if the license you want to trace is up for renewal soon. Otherwise, you're SOL.
It was a good suggestion terbguy - but now I'm concerned that Fabu-guy will have a swelled head.

That sounds like me when I was younger. If it was a woman that cut me off, or whatever, I would try and get the keys out of the ignition then throw them as far as I could. If it was a guy, I would just start pounding the crap out of him. Nothing like a neanderthal like punchfest to releave all the days stress.PHNINE said:
Did that many many times when I was young but got arrested twice. $500 fine the first offence, and 2 yrs probation the second, as the were a couple years apart.
The one good thing about getting older is that a Pardonn makes the past all go away.
As far as drivers out there, no one gives a shit about anyone else but themselves because their just ignorant people. And one thing I just hate is when I'm passing someone, and I'm already going 125, some braindead fuck crawls right on your bumper because they want to go faster. Not a good thing to do. All I have to say about assholes like that is if I have to stop fast, can you, without causing a crash.
