Brooklyn, NY asked in Traffic Tickets for Maryland

Q: If I am on probation for a speeding ticket and am at court for another speeding ticket, what does that mean?

The judge asked me if I have anything on my record and I said no. But I think I’m on probation from another ticket, but thought she meant if I have points. Am I in trouble?

A: You should have told the judge you received probation before judgment for another speeding ticket and when that occurred. The judge can pull your driving record. If you were in trouble, the judge would have told you right then and there. The judge usually pulls your driving record during your case.
