It is sometimes a trade off where you can avoid losing points by taking the class. You usually will still pay the traffic fine as well.
Traffic school or not you will still have to pay for the ticket. The reason people want to do traffic school it removes the ticket from the driving record. The cost of tickets vary depending on where you live and if it was a city or state officer that gave you the ticket. On the back of the ticket is usually instructions on what to do, so follow those instructions. Reasonably you should expect to pay a couple of hundred after the cost of the ticket and traffic school. If your state allows it you may be able to do traffic school on line from a list of schools they have approved.
It depends on the regulations in your particular state. In some states you can take traffic school and keep the ticket off your record. In others you can only take traffic school to remove points from your driver's license. The ticket still shows on your record.
If you did not take the trafic school and get the traffic school certificate sent in to the court by the court due date, then the ticket will still go on your record and the Insurance will raise your rates. So it all depends on if you got everything taken care of in the correct timeframe.
No it does not.
If you're speaking of obstruction and impeeding traffic that is typically 0 points but you still have to pay the ticket
Your insurance won't go up if you submitted the traffic school certificate to the court by the due date so don't worry. You should have the documentation necessary to prove you went to trafficschoolo.
After 18 months since our last ticket you are elligible to attend traffic school....SO YES...you can get the ticket off of your record....and 89mph is nothing.....people get those ticket everday.....especiall in CA. I went to this school and it was cheap and easy.
SURE...you can go to traffic school as long as it has been at least 18 months since you have attended the last one.
== == I received one and plea bargained it down to a generic speeding ticket (which was erased with traffic school). The fine still stood though...the base fine was $250 to $350 but it's the penalty assessments that kill you. The penalty assessments brought the total to $1000!!!! Throw in traffic school and the total out-the-door cost that day was $1070 !!! That was an expensive experience.
It is not necessary that you sign, the ticket is still valid
Probably not. There is usually a two-year waiting period before you can take traffic school again, and your driving history was transfered from CA to AZ. -----edit: I say, absolutely! This is a loophole of our legal system: you cannot attend traffic school more than once in a two-year period UNLESS you APPEAR BEFORE A JUDGE and verbally REQUEST traffic school. They will most likely grant it. I've gotten about five traffic tickets in the last 4 years, and the points come right off my record. However the communication between the courthouse and the DMV isn't so good. I tried to switch my car insurance and found a ticket that had been cleared months earlier was still on my DMV record. You have to stand up for yourself and work with these people to do what it takes until you are in the clear.
