Choosing To Fight A Speeding Ticket

Just like with other traffic tickets, you may choose to fight a speeding ticket. In some prosecutorial districts in North Carolina, you can do this by trying to get a ticket reduced from a moving violation to a nonmoving violation. Many prosecutors and judges will do this if the ticket falls within certain guidelines and an attorney appears on your behalf. The reduction of the charge to a nonmoving violation means you avoid points on your driving record, so there is no effect on your license or your insurance rates.

If you choose to fight a speeding ticket, remember that you have the right to a lawyer. Having an attorney can be beneficial, especially if you have concerns about your ability to understand the law, prepare yourself for a hearing and defend yourself in legal proceedings.
