Q: U.S. District Court Violation Notice - "36 CFR § 4.22" - "Unsafe operation". What are my options?
I got a U.S. District Court Violation Notice in Death valley National park under - "36 CFR § 4.22" - "Unsafe operation".- "Failing to maintain that degree of control of a motor vehicle necessary to avoid danger to persons, property or wildlife."
1. What are my options?
2. Does it has any consequence on employment, dmv, immigration?
3. is it a misdemeanor?
4. Can I contest this violation notice? or should I just pay the fine.
Please help, what is the best way. Thanks!
A:
This is basically a federal traffic citation, most likely an infraction. Like other traffic citations, it could impact your DMV record and insurance costs. It's very unlikely to have any effect on employment or immigration. You can contest the citation if you believe there is a basis for doing so, or you can pay the fine and be done with it.

i only accept cases in the greater Palm Springs area and do not handle matter like this.
more info is needed.
it sounds like an infraction for what would probably be a vehicle code violation for something like speeding.
if so it would go on your DMV record but might not affect employment unless your job requires driving.
