Ticket dismissal for CDL holder in their personal vehicle

Never heard of that, not saying that's not possible. I know in NY you'll get an insurance reduction, but they won't outright dismiss a violation just because you took a defensive driving course. Your results may vary....

 

For several years now any citation received by a CDL holder may not be dismissed no matter what type of vehicle they were driving.

I have found that some of the smaller city or county courts will cut you a deal if you are willing to just pay the fine.

 

Yup, go to that court and ask the clerk which lawyers they see often.

This has been discussed many times in here. The FMCSA has a rule that a CDL holder once convicted can not use any kind of a program to reduce the charge. HOWEVER this rule does NOT prevent a court from changing the charge before court. I have done this and several others in here have also. PLEASE stop spreading myths.

 

BS, there is NO rule or law anywhere that prevents a judge or prosecutor from dismissing a case involving a CDL holder.

 

I have had two dismissed, one in my car and one in my truck.

 

Question:
So trying to have it reduced to something else would fall under TICKETMASKING ?

 

For the record, a ticket is NOT a conviction. It is a charge. A LEO cites you that there is enough evidence to order you to court. There is NOTHING that prevents a change of a charge or a dismissal. However once the conviction is noted THEN it is a conviction as goes on your record as such.
