I was pulled over for registration that was expired for two years. The officer told me it was a 'fixer' ticket and that I would not have to appear in court if I updated my registration. I took my updated registration to the courthouse and the guy told me he wasn't able to make that... Read more »
Most likely but you will still have to go to court to show proof and get it dismissed.
I do not believe I was going that fast. What should my next step be if my court is in 5 days?
Hire a lawyer to handle it for you.
Last week I was pulled over in TN going 16 over. Am I at risk of losing my license? Should I go to court date and try to get the ticket dropped? What can I do next?
No. You are not at risk. However, you should hire an attorney to handle the ticket for you.
Is it possible for her to only pay the fines and not have it on her record.
She may be eligible for a diversion program where after the case can be dismissed and expunged but there is really no mechanism by which she can pay a fine but not have the charge on her record. Hire her an attorney to resolve this for her so she is not negatively impacted.
The road has 4 lanes total and a median seperating them into 2 lane roads, I'm certain the bus was in the opposite 2 lanes, I would like to fight this ticket and plead not guilty.
Hire an attorney. These cases can be tricky.
Now live in Kentucky, but I now own a Florida driver’s license, after some research, I was told a notice of suspension was being sent out but I never got it. What do I do?
Contact a lawyer in Fl in the city where you got the ticket snd hire them to resolve it for you. Most likely, your license is already suspended and you don’t know it so you should address this quickly.
Officer claims we were doing 70 in a 45. When in actuality it’s only 45 when there’s construction, which there was none that day as it was raining making the limit 55. We sped to maybe 60 and only to pass someone going 25. Once we passed, A semi started merging and it looked as if they were... Read more »
It would be much more prudent to hire an attorney and resolve it than to litigate it.
I have a charge for 26> or over then it says (limited access) next to that charge. Then I also got reckless driving and No seatbelt. My court date is today and I plan on pleading guilty do I need a lawyer for this case?
Yes. You do. Pleading to the 26 Over will suspend your license. Plead not guilty and hire a lawyer.
No. You will be eligible to expunge 5 years from the date of sentencing.
Depends on how fast you were actually going. You should hire a lawyer immediately to handle for you.
26 or greater over limit
Reckless driving
Improper turn signal
Improper equipment
License to be in possesion
Failure to give insurance card
Everything is first offense and a misdemeanor I have a invoice stating that I had bad speed sensors and my... Read more »
Most likely not. Get the tags and registration snd proof of insurance corrected and they will likely be dismissed.
Officer claimed I was doing 107 in a 70 mph . When I’m fact i was doing less since I had my cruise control set to at most 83 . He also claimed he was chasing someone else at the moment and then he pulled me over so I believe he got the other person speed. On the ticket he states I was doing 98... Read more »
Yes. You can contest the ticket.
Thank you for your response, It wouldn’t be considered incorrect information only “minor error”?
No. If the ethnicity is incorrect it would be considered a minor error.
Charges probably diverted or dismissed.
A week after getting pulled over he got his driver's license. Took the test and everything. Will having his liscense reduce the punishment?
Yes.
Officer stated I was doing over 50 in a 35mph zone. It was actually a 40mph zone and he didn’t get me on radar.. also said he was giving me a “huge break” by not writing a speeding ticket but he really couldn’t because he didn’t radar me. so he wrote me a careless driving citation.
Probably not, but it might be able to be diverted and then dismissed.
It is required by the Kentucky Recised Statutes.
I'm a 47 yro class A cdl driver, so my livelihood depends on my license. I have had 2 speeding tickets, in my work truck, the most recent being 2014. This ticket was 24feb2022, in my personal vehicle going West on I64. I had moved over for a silver s10 because he was on my tail, and after he... Read more »
If it happened in 2014, it’s about 7 years too late, although you could have them expunged at this point.
Impounded for no proof of insurance or registration R/O has no license
You’ll need the owner with you with some type of proper id to do it.
This is my first offense and have never been pulled over prior. I was released after passing a sobriety test. Will my insurance be notified of the traffic violation before I have to show up for my court date and if the charges are dropped will my insurance still be notified? What are the chances my...

As a first time Offender you should be eligible for a marijuana education class and be allowed to have the drug charges eventually dismissed. As far as insurance there’s no way to know when and if A company will run a random check on you. I would recommend hiring an experienced criminal defense... Read more »
