Tickets that can affect your record
Many moving violations add points to your license, and some can lead to suspension or higher insurance costs. Representation is available for the violations below. Camera-issued tickets are not part of this practice.
Speed
Speeding
Speeding citations carry points that vary with the amount over the limit, and higher speeds can bring larger fines and suspension risk.
Signals
Red lights and stop signs
Failing to stop at a red light or stop sign is a point-bearing violation that can raise your record total and affect insurance rates.
Driving conduct
Careless and reckless driving
Careless and reckless driving charges can carry significant points, fines, and in some cases a suspension of driving privileges.
Right of way
Failure to yield and improper passing
Failure to yield and improper passing citations are often contested on the facts of how the maneuver occurred and who had the right of way.
Specialized citations
Where each citation is handled

Suspension-triggering tickets
When a ticket may trigger a suspension, the points, the court, and the deadlines involved should be reviewed as part of your defense.
03
Hearing deadlines
