OPTION 1

The amount to be paid depends  of the type of ticket  received. You can also receive points on your license if a ticket was considered a "moving violation" of the vehicle.

A) The Florida Department of Highways and Motor Vehicles has the authority to suspend the license of any driver who accumulates 12 or more points in a calendar year.

B) In Florida paying a ticket is equivalent to an admission of guilt.

C) In some cases, you will have  the option of going to a traffic school to avoid points on the license.  

The school option is NOT allowed  for:

•  CDL Licensed Drivers Ticketed for DUI
•  A speeding violation for more than 30 mph.
•  Driving without a copy of the vehicle registration.
•  Vehicle registration expired for 6 months or less.
   Or if it is expired for more than 6 months, but it is the first
   once fined for that violation.

Request a hearing in Miami-Dade County traffic court where a magistrate or judge will make a decision about your ticket.

The judge or magistrate will consider several factors such as your driving record, police testimony, video and any other type of evidence to determine your guilt.

Mostly this option requires 2 audience  in front of the judge or magistrate, on different days.

First:

Pre-Trial to testify  your legal position against the accusations of the police and the ticket towards you.

Second:

Trial, where the police officer and all other witnesses involved will also be summoned.
