A traffic infraction is the most common
type of traffic ticket and may or may not require a court hearing. Usually,
court hearings are optional and you can do everything through the mail. This is
normally the type of traffic ticket you’ll receive for speeding, rolling a stop
sign, driving while license suspended, or other minor traffic offenses. These
offenses are linked to your driving record, may cause “points” to accrue
on your record, and your insurance company (or anyone else who wants to pull up
your driving history) will be able to see this ticket if you are found guilty.
If you have a relatively clean driving history, a traffic infraction can almost
always be taken care.
In cases where your state law requires an objective
observation by the officer (not a judgment call about whether your action was
safe), it often boils down to an argument about whose version of the facts is
correct. For instance, if you were cited for driving while license is suspended
who wins the case will depend on who the judge believes. Unfortunately, the guy
wearing the badge usually wins, unless you can cast real doubt on his ability
to accurately perceive what happened. However, there are a number of techniques
that may work to raise at least a reasonable doubt as to your guilt.
As always, the best way to fight a traffic
infraction is to consult an experienced traffic lawyer. Hire one and let him
take care of your traffic infraction worries today.
