hello, i got a ticket on weight station because my log book wasn't updated from Off duty to On duty, and that showed me like i was driving for 5 hours off duty. I live in Michigan but i got the ticket in Kentucky. I just have some questions, do i lose points in my DL? Do i really have to get a lawyer? And if i pay the fine, what will happen? Do i have to be in court?
Ps: im a new driver

Log book school time. Pay up.
Don't get that far out of violations again.
Aint but a little money lost and maybe a OOS here and there now and then. The problem is in the ELD. When it's time for you to stop and sleep, stop and sleep. And that is where it sometimes causes big problems like having to be towed from your reciever when you are unable to drive a inch until you have had time in the berth or hotel.
Never mind the record but it will be recorded on your PSP.
Even if it did get onto your record, big deal. As far as violations go it's not that big of a deal because its relatively easy to avoid those kinds of tickets and violations. Part of learning. -
It wont affect your drivers license- No Points!!
Just pay it and move on.....It'll be on your PSP report only which is controlled by the FMCSA points system-FlaSwampRat, jammer910Z, x1Heavy and 1 other person Thank this. -
