Q: I got a ticket today and I got accused of speeding but on the ticket the state trooper put that my lic plate
Was expired and it's not. Should I take it to court
A: If a driver who has been cited for traffic violations pays the fine without contesting it in court, that driver loses; will have both a court record and a driver's license record of conviction(s). So the question I would ask is: "Why would a cited driver *not* contest those charges in court, given nothing to lose?" Call a defense attorney to discuss. Then fight it with, or without, an attorney's help.
A: Why would you pay a ticket for having expired tabs if your tabs weren’t expired. Yes, you should get a court date.
