sight to notify of my intentions. The cop was parked down the road on a private lot in the dark. The stop led to more charges. Is his stop justified?

I have a current valid Michigan license. They use my old Indiana license with an address that I’ve never stayed at before. I haven’t had a license in Indiana in 3-4 years now.

It was believed this ticket was taken care of 15 years ago. In Maury county Tennessee. Recently found out there is no warrant but an amount of money owed. Is this past the statute of limitations or would I be able to set up a payment plan as I live paycheck to paycheck and live in another state... View More

All be because I said something he didn’t like.... View More

Probably legal for each day that you drive the car without the front plate. Unfortunately the state legislatures don't issue citations to the people most responsible for this, car dealers that sell cars without all the plates. This case arises under traffic ticket law. You need to discuss... View More
I received 2 traffic citation points, today. The charges are Restraint System (I had my cousin in my car without a booster seat just for a quick ride) and Driving on Roadways lanes for traffic. I understand that both charges are 100% my fault. But I’d like to know if there’s any better way to... View More

Some states have a diversion system for the restraint violation. You take a class and it is dismissed. It doesn't matter how short the trip is, if you are on the road you have to follow all the restraint and booster seat laws. On the second one, I have no comment. This case arises under... View More

All excellent points to present to the Court to show that the ticket was improperly issued. You still have to appear in Court because you signed a promise to appear, and the states are now interlinked, so any problem you have in IN will affect your CDL.

Hi, I got a traffic citation under title 75 section 6110 subsection A on PA turnpike. I want to know if this a moving violation or carry any points? Will this affect my future insurance coverage? If yes, is it worth contesting it in the court?
answered on Jun 9, 2023
When you are issued a traffic citation the PD can arrest you and take you before a magistrate for arraignment; or you can sign a "promise to appear" and pledge to willingly go to court. Failing to appear on that promise is often a more serious offense than the traffic ticket, and will... View More
I gave the company the paper work for the registration and they never turned it in until I received the ticket and now my license is suspended for the no insurance even when the company said there was insurance on the truck.
answered on Jun 9, 2023
Since you were personally cited, you have to personally appear in Court in accord with your signed promise to appear. That is when you sign the ticket instead of being handcuffed and immediately taken to jail. In many cases the court will dismiss the charges against the driver who is not the... View More
