A traffic violation is more than a minor inconvenience. It can have anticipated and unanticipated consequences, including:

  • Fines, fees and other penalties.
  • Increased insurance rates and/or difficulty obtaining affordable auto insurance in the future.
  • A traffic violation that will be accessible through public records.
  • Possible driver's license problems, including suspension or revocation.
  • Your professional license may be affected, particularly if you drive for a living.

The following legal information concerning traffic tickets is provided here as a courtesy, to give you useful background vocabulary and concepts related to traffic violations in general. It is not intended to address your particular circumstances necessarily. Talk to a lawyer to learn what options you may have to pursue a more favorable outcome by contesting the traffic ticket.
