| Ticket from 2006
My mom got a ticket in 2006 for not wearing a seatbelt. She never paid, doesn't drive, will never get a driver's license, and is only in Canada once a year to visit.
I started getting mail from ICBC saying that her account is overdue. If we never pay the ticket will this affect her in some way other than not being able to get a driver's license?

You committed an offence. Just pay up dude.
Just cause you're not a 'permanent' resident of the country, doesn't mean you're excused from the law

If she tries to get a drivers license, it will come up and you will have to pay before they let you have one i believe.

...and | No, she is not excused from the law. But if the only consequence of not paying is that she won't be able to get a driver's license then there really is no incentive to pay. And that is not our fault but the fault of the people that come up with the laws.
If there were other consequences then we would pay ASAP.

I asked the question because I wanted to know if anything else could happen aside from her not being able to get a license. That's it. No reason for you to get upset. If you do not have information that I do not already know, kindly move on.

So OP and OP's mother have no morals. OP will be a good defense lawyer!
OP, did your mom ever hold a BCDL? Was she the driver when she was ticketed, or the passenger? If she was the driver, was she holding a foreign DL?
I wonder if ICBC could technically summon a family member of your mom to pay up or the same penalty would apply to you, your dad, or any siblings in the household. But I guess that is a lot of resources and time just for a 100 something dollar ticket, which would have been 25 dollars less if paid within 30 days.

Make her pay the fucking fine, and make her use a seatbelt so that the next accident I'm at there isn't a dumb fucking reason like not wearing a seatbelt for having a gruesome fatality there.

i think it's comical OP is asking about a ticket from 8 years ago...esp from someone about to practice law
not buckling up only puts oneself at risk...not the general public
a gruesome scene is not a valid excuse to rant |

Until Canada adopt rules like in the States, where a Unpaid Speeding ticket could get you in Jail. Safest bet, just pay it off... and no more worries
