Made a mistake, recieved a traffic violation in PMV while in the process of getting CDL. How bad?

Talk to the DA,received a ticket in new york in 2017,sent a letter to the ADA with a copy of clean records and an explanation of what happened.few weeks later i got a letter with a recommendation to the court to lessen the charges,to my surprise the judge dismissed all charges with no prejudice.
You gotta plead not guilty first

 

Gasp

What a crime

Do what this guy says ...

 

Is it speed over 15 or dui? If not you should be ok.

 

at the very least I would see if the court will change it to a non moving violation

 

get a traffic lawyer and bring it down to a non moving violation. best wsy

 

I got busted 17 over in Oklahoma in my car while holding a cdl. A couple phone calls and $500 sent that reckless driving charge on a vacation and a taillight (on a brand new car) was found to be not operating.

 

Offer to pay double if they'll knock it down to an equipment violation.
Don't accept the moving violation.
It will haunt you like a drunken night playing with a Ouija board in New Orleans.

 

I always fight a ticket. It's worth it to fight a ticket simply because your insurance rates go up.

Once, when I was delivering pizzas, I took a shortcut to avoid a traffic circle, and this professional donut gobbler ticketed me for doing so. I pled not guilty and showed up knowing I would lose the case if officer Krispy Kreme showed up. But he didn't, and the charge was dismissed.

If the charge against you is severe enough, I would absolutely hire an attorney.

Hiring an attorney lets the court know that you are willing to play by their rules in their forum and will look upon you more favorably since you have hired someone's golfing buddy... or uh, I mean esteemed colleague.

Seriously though, your legal woes are routine to any experienced traffic attorney and he or she will be able to help.

 

I have had a redlight ticket dismissed. I talked to the officer before court started and asked him if he could amend my violation to a non moving violation. He said he will see what he could do. When my name was called in court, judge said “Dismissed”.......
