Question: 1 / 50

What is the penalty for failing to stop at the scene of a collision under the Criminal Code of Canada?

Fine of $1,000

Fine of $2,000, two years in jail, and up to 3 years prohibition from operating a motor vehicle

Failing to stop at the scene of a collision is considered a criminal offense, so a fine may not be the only consequence. Option A is incorrect because the fine is only $1,000, which may not be enough to deter someone from committing the offense. Option C is incorrect because the penalty for failing to stop at the scene of a collision is not that severe. Option D is incorrect because a 1 year prohibition from operating a motor vehicle may not be enough to prevent someone from continuing to drive illegally. Option B, which includes a fine, jail time, and a prohibition from operating a motor vehicle for a longer period of time, is the correct answer as it is a more sizable punishment and can have a greater impact on preventing individuals from committing this offense in the future.

5 years in jail

1 year prohibition from operating a motor vehicle
