Parents of teenagers know that getting a traffic ticket is always a risk. This can lead to increased insurance rates or having to pay the fines associated with the ticket. If your teen receives a ticket, you have a few options.
Miami, FL -- (ReleaseWire) -- 01/24/2024 --One option is to pay the ticket. This may be the default option, particularly if it's a moving violation. However, paying the ticket could result in points on your teen's license, which could lead to higher insurance premiums. If the ticket is a non-moving violation, then paying the ticket may be the best option. The fines are usually minor and they often don't involve points being added to a driver's license.
Another option is to pay the ticket and have your teen attend traffic school. This option will also avoid points affecting your teen's driving record. Traffic school provides valuable lessons in safe driving, but it will require several hours plus fees to attend the class.
Finally, you could fight the traffic ticket. By fighting the ticket, it may be dismissed, which means there is no risk of it affecting your teen's driving record.
