Getting a St. Louis Traffic Ticket 'Fixed' - $35

Getting pulled over by a police officer is no fun. And receiving a St. Louis traffic ticket afterwards is even less fun. All of us would agree that having a specific speed limit is a good idea on the highway (and certainly residential areas). It reduces accidents (those resulting in fatalities, and simple fender-benders), minimizes road-rage, and keeps pedestrians safer. But no one thinks that getting a St. Louis speeding ticket is anything to jump for joy over.

Once the ticket is issued by the officer, you at that point have three options:

1. You could simply sign the back of the citation, and mail in the associated fine;
2. You could show in court on the designated date and time, and make an argument before the judge as to why you should not have been pulled over; or
3. You can hire an experienced St. Louis speeding ticket lawyer to handle the ticket for you.

Option one is by far the most costly and inefficient way of dealing with the ticket over the long run. If you were to simply pay the fine associated with the infraction, you are pleading guilty to the charge of speeding. This will in turn negatively affect your driving record by having “points” assigned to it. These points are like red flags on your record. As the points accumulate, the higher your automobile insurance rises. And if enough points find their way onto your driving record, you could either lose your driver’s license or have it suspended for a period of time.

Option two is not much better, as you will have to act as your own St. Louis traffic ticket attorney. Facing a night-court traffic judge and a seasoned prosecutor is not exactly a fun-filled evening. And unless you can provide compelling evidence that you were wrongly cited with a moving violation, then you are most likely going to be slapped with a stiff penalty (if not more).

But this does not have to happen. Your driving record can be kept clean, and your insurance premiums can remain low. You can avoid court altogether, can make sure that there is no risk of losing your license.
