I got a ticket today for going through a red light

Was there a roadside inspection?

 

If you did not receive that paper saying "Vehicle Report Inspection", it will not count any points on your CSA card. If you received only the ticket and there was no roadside inspection, there are no points on your CSA.

 

Run a red light is not a moving violation dont know why but thats what my compsny told me and said it didnt count against me

 

Someone is bs'ing you...running a red light is a moving violation.

 

Id take it to court, doesn't cost you anything and in if cop don't show up your off the hook. I would tell them that the light had just turned and was in a combination vehicle and if i was to apply the brakes as i needed my trailer would have been in the lane next to me so it was one decision or the other. Course you'd have to be able to talk the ears off a brass billy goat to be able to pull this story its a trait that few have thankfully im blessed with it.

 

A ticket for running a red light, this is a moving violation, if it was not, it would not carry a three points against your DMV. And don't think for a minute that it will not show up on your CSA, it is certainly going on your DMV and you can rest assured that it is going on your CSA. Even traffic warnings are showing up on drivers' CSA scores.

 

Are you sure about that? Bc I got a ,well the only speeding ticket down in Florida in my Beamer not even in a CMV from a local evil knevil and received points. Have they changed it since 08?

 

No inspections... No CSA....

I got the same ticket last year. No CSA involved.

 

Under the FMCSA regs, it says its under the unsafe operation category of what they call BASICs. They look at it as running a stopsign or inattention. Ruling is under FMCSR 392 and 397. You can look it up online. Look it up. Its there. It happens. Just be glad there was no accident and no one got hurt is the light at the end of the tunnel. Be safe out there drivers.
