Legal Question in Traffic Law in Florida

Re: Unlawful Speed

Hello: 'Just read your question. As you probably saw on your ticket, if you go 30 mph over the limit, you have to make a court date. Once there, you can plead no contest. If you don't have a bad prior record with tickets, you may still get the court to decide to "withhold adjudication of guilt". This means no points will be assessed. I have had a couple of clients with these charges in a couple of counties in No. Fla. and we got withholds. The court did increase the fine and in one case ordered driving school.

'Hope this helps. If my office can be of assistance in No. Fla. please give us a call. Good luck. Tom Rosenblum
