Local Florida governments are always seeking ways to maintain funding for their core programs, and many rely on revenue generated by local law enforcement issuing Florida traffic tickets. However, for those unfortunate enough to be subject to a traffic ticket tax, the consequences can be more severe than simply paying a fine. Florida Ticket Firm, a traffic ticket and criminal defense law firm, has recently opened an office in Hollywood and says it’s a big mistake to just pay a traffic ticket, thinking it will make it go away. Just the opposite is true.
Florida Ticket Firm warns that paying a traffic ticket is an admission of guilt. Admitting guilt to a Florida traffic violation will generally add points to your Florida driver’s license. Points are bad when you’re talking about driver’s licenses; they can lead to increased car insurance rates and put your driver’s license at risk of suspension. That local government funding comes at a much greater personal expense to you, as the recipient of a Florida traffic citation: damaging your driving record, increasing your insurance rates, and potentially jeopardizing your driving privilege.
Florida Ticket Firm recommends that anyone receiving a Florida Uniform Traffic Citation for any traffic violation – whether it be a speeding ticket, a red light ticket, or a ticket for running a stop sign – consult with an experienced traffic ticket lawyer who knows the legal technicalities that might result in your traffic citation being outright dismissed. Florida Ticket Firm is clear that you shouldn’t just pay a traffic ticket, and wants to make sure everyone receiving a traffic citation knows they have options and can, and should, fight it.
Traffic tickets are supposed to act as a financial deterrent to traffic law violators. However, even if you think you’re guilty of a traffic law violation, Florida Ticket Firm points out that you’re innocent until proven guilty in the eyes of the law.
Florida Ticket Firm handles traffic tickets and criminal defense matters in Broward County, Miami-Dade County, Palm Beach County, Martin County, and St. Lucie County. Florida Ticket Firm also handles traffic-related personal injury matters throughout the entire State of Florida.
