Types of Traffic TIckets

Speeding – One of the most reasons for a traffic ticket. There are different speeding laws and penalties. Highways, residential streets, and school zones all have different maximum speed limits. Hazardous weather conditions can cause speeding limits to change for safety reasons.

Distracted Driving – Distracted driving is a large category that includes several different types of offences. The most popular distracted driving offence is driving while using a handheld cell phone and texting. These types of tickets are at an all time high.

Driving Without A Valid Licence – It is illegal to drive without a valid driver’s licence, or to drive with a licence that has been legally suspended. Depending on the situation, the driver may receive a warning or a ticket. Even without a valid licence present, you may be able to prove that you have a licence in other ways. We can explain the penalties that come with driving without proof of licence.

Reckless Driving – This is driving without regard for the safety of others, for example, racing. A driver faced with reckless driving shows a willful disregard for the safety of other people. This can also be described as careless driving or dangerous driving. Eluding a police officer, driving over 25 miles per hour over the posted speed limit, and passing another vehicle when visibility of oncoming traffic is limited, all qualify as reckless driving.

Running A Red Light Or Stop Sign – This is a dangerous offence that can incur different penalties. If you do not stop long enough at a stop sign, or come to a complete stop, it is considered as a violation of traffic law.
