Receive a Speeding Ticket in Erie County?
Regardless of whether you’ve been cited for speeding, reckless driving, aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle or another traffic violation in Erie County, it is important to talk to an Erie County traffic ticket lawyer before you pay the fine.
Simply paying a traffic ticket is an admission of guilt and by adding a conviction for a NY traffic violation to your record, you face the risk of:
- Increased insurance premiums
- Accumulating points on your driver’s license — six or more in 18 months results in having to pay a New York driver responsibility assessment (DRA) for three years
- Your driver’s license being later suspended or revoked for additional traffic violations
