Some Drivers Get to Clear Traffic Tickets at Video Kiosks –  blog submitted by staging-vadusuxe.kinsta.cloud, helping drivers contest and dismiss their traffic tickets. 

Drivers can now clear traffic tickets and in certain cases see a judge face to face using video kiosks located in a few San Antonio grocery stores.

As reported by WOAI.com News, video kiosks connected to the municipal court put people face-to-face with a judge, allowing everyone to skip the hassle of driving down to the courthouse.  The video kiosk allows you to talk to someone immediately at the court and a clerk will first screen a case then bring in a judge to take a plea. Those who use the kiosk will be able to request probation or a driver’s safety course and pay for the ticket at the kiosk.

In light of budget cuts and courtroom closures, many California drivers who are ticketed face considerable wait times to get through to a court clerk whether it is over the phone or in person, and could definitely benefit from traffic ticket video kiosks.-  blog submitted by staging-vadusuxe.kinsta.cloud, helping drivers contest and dismiss their traffic tickets.

You Do Not Have to Be a Physicist to Beat a Stop Sign Ticket

/0 Comments/in /by

In April 2012, NBC reported a UCSD physicist beat a traffic ticket involving a stop sign by preparing an extensive paper explaining how the ticket he was given defies physics and how what the police officer thought he saw, really was different from reality, according to the law of physics. The physicist warned that it took a perfect combination of events for his argument to legitimately hold up. Don’t be discouraged if you’re not a physicist, here at staging-vadusuxe.kinsta.cloud we know you don’t need to be a physicist to successfully beat a California traffic ticket involving a stop sign.

Previous Ticketbust.com customer, John, recently received word from the Los Angeles Superior Court, Lancaster Branch that his stop sign ticket was dismissed.  John knew he had stopped for the stop sign but the officer didn’t believe him so he turned to staging-vadusuxe.kinsta.cloud for help. The staging-vadusuxe.kinsta.cloud team conducted an over the phone consultation with John to gather all the necessary details about what happened and put together a comprehensive written defense that John could use to fight his ticket. staging-vadusuxe.kinsta.cloud prepared a Trial by Written Declaration for John outlining the various factors such as the road conditions, limited visibility factor, and position of the officer, which affected the officer’s ability to obtain a clear view of the stop made by John. John received a refund of over $200.00 from the court for the bail he had posted and the ticket was dismissed from his record.  –  blog submitted by staging-vadusuxe.kinsta.cloud, helping drivers contest and dismiss their traffic tickets.

Tactics to Use to Contest a Stop Sign Ticket

/0 Comments/in , /by

Tactics to Use to Contest a Stop Sign Ticket – blog submitted by staging-vadusuxe.kinsta.cloud, helping drivers contest and dismiss their traffic tickets. 

Officers are human and can make mistakes just like anyone else. Just because you got a stop sign ticket doesn’t necessarily mean you really broke the law. Here are some tactics to consider when deciding to challenge a stop sign violation ticket:

  • Read the language on the ticket.

Did the officer write that you failed to stop at the limit line or failed to stop at all?

Now, if the officer wrote that you failed to stop at the limit line, depending on the facts of your case, one angle might be to argue that you while you made a complete stop, you were unable to stop right at the limit line because it was faded, obstructed by mud, not visible at night, etc.

  • Raise Doubt that the officer’s observations were accurate.

The best way to do this is to go back to the location of the stop sign and position yourself where the officer was. Take photographs and make a clear diagram showing anything that could have obstructed the officer’s view of you at the stop sign. Think trees, bushes, fences, sign posts, parked cars, etc.

  • Get a Witness to Testify to Your Version of Events

The officer is technically just a witness who will argue that he witnessed you doing something wrong. You are arguing you didn’t do anything wrong, so if you had a passenger with you or know of a bystander who witnessed the event, consult with them to see if they agree to the same version of the event as you, and if they are willing to testify on your behalf to make your version of what happened more credible.

Blocking Traffic Considered Stopping Violation Not a Moving Violation

Blocking Traffic Considered Stopping Violation Not a Moving Violation – blog submitted by staging-vadusuxe.kinsta.cloud, helping drivers contest and dismiss their traffic tickets. 

Anyone who has driven in a busy Metropolitan City (take LA) has probably had the experience of getting stuck in an intersection when the light turns red. While you might piss of other drivers who have a green light, up until 1987 it was not illegal to block traffic (just impolite). That is until California enacted the “Anti-Gridlock Act of 1987”.

Here’s what the law says:

  1. (a) Notwithstanding any official traffic control signal indication to proceed, a driver of a vehicle shall not enter an intersection or marked crosswalk unless there is sufficient space on the other side of the intersection or marked crosswalk to accommodate the vehicle driven without obstructing the through passage of vehicles from either side.

You’ll be glad to know a violation of this law is not considered a violation of a law relating to the safe operation of vehicles and is the following:

(1)    A stopping violation when a notice to appear has been issued by a peace officer, or;

(2)    A parking violation when a notice of parking violation is issued by a person, other than a peace officer.

Tickets for blocking traffic will not result in a point being added to your driving record, but will result in a $200 – $400 fine (depending on whether you are blocking an intersection or a railroad crossing). –  blog submitted by staging-vadusuxe.kinsta.cloud, helping drivers contest and dismiss their traffic tickets.

Buckle Up! About California Safety Belt Laws – blog submitted by staging-vadusuxe.kinsta.cloud, helping drivers contest and dismiss their traffic tickets.

Did you know that in California:

  • Children must be properly secured in the back seat and in an approved child restraint system until they are 8 years old (CA Veh. Code 27360)
  • Children who are at least 8 years old and are under age 16 must be properly secured in either a child restraint system or a properly fitted safety belt (CA Veh. Code 27360.5)
  • Drivers of passenger vehicles are required to wear safety belts properly and to have passengers 16 or older properly restrained by safety belts (CA Veh. Code 27315)
  • Passengers 16 or older are required to wear safety belts in all vehicles and may be cited in addition to the driver (CA Veh. Code 27315)

Failing to have minors buckled in your vehicle can result in points being added to your driving record. –  blog submitted by staging-vadusuxe.kinsta.cloud, helping drivers contest and dismiss their traffic tickets.

What to do if You Were Ticketed for an Equipment Violation but No Longer Own the Car

/0 Comments/in , /by

Equipment violations are generally marked as ‘correctable’ on your ticket, meaning if you fix it you are eligible to have it dismissed. Some examples of equipment violations include: illegal tinted windows, missing license plates, worn out tires, or a broken tail light.

Although most equipment violation tickets do not result in a point going on your record, the cost of the ticket will be far less if you have the violation corrected. Upon showing proof of correction to the clerk of the court you will only be charged a nominal fee, generally $25.00. As a comparison, an equipment violation ticket without proof of correction can cost over $100.00. Moreover if you do not have the violation fixed you are at risk for getting subsequent tickets.

Issues arise when you have sold the car since receiving the ticket or the car is now inoperable. If this occurred prior to you having the violation corrected, then you will no longer be able to obtain proof of correction. Therefore you will need to present your case to a judge along with proof of sale (showing you no longer own the car), or the relevant paperwork that shows the vehicle is now inoperable. The judge has the discretion to dismiss the ticket for you even though you never took care of the fix – it – ticket. –  blog submitted by staging-vadusuxe.kinsta.cloud, helping drivers contest and dismiss their traffic tickets.

Tickets For Driving Too Slow Can Be Just as Expensive (and Damaging) as Speeding

Tickets For Driving Too Slow Can Be Just as Expensive (and Damaging) as Speeding –blog submitted by staging-vadusuxe.kinsta.cloud, helping drivers contest and dismiss their traffic tickets.

Did you know you are just as guilty as someone who is speeding if you are driving more slowly than everybody else and fail to move out of the way?

Many states require drivers who are traveling below the normal speed of the flow of traffic to move to the right (regardless of whether YOU are going the speed limit) and California is one of them.

Everyone in California is required to drive at a speed which is “reasonable and prudent” according to factors such as weather, traffic, and the type of road you are driving on. But apart from this any vehicle driving at a speed less than the normal speed of traffic moving in the same direction shall be driven in the right-hand lane for traffic (or as close as practicable to the right-hand edge or curb). An exception would be if you are overtaking and passing another vehicle.

Many may feel that speeders pose a bigger safety threat than those who drive ‘over cautiously’ however according to a David Solomon (United States Government researcher who wrote a paper in 1964 on the subject of speed and crashes), the crash risk increases at speeds below the average traffic flow versus those above the average traffic flow. It’s not surprising then that a ticket for a slow moving vehicle failing to keep to the right can negatively affect your driving record the same (and is also the same cost) as speeding 1-15 mph above the posted speed limit of  65 mph.-  blog submitted by staging-vadusuxe.kinsta.cloud, helping drivers contest and dismiss their traffic tickets.

Red Light Camera Tickets No Longer Issued In LA City But Still in County

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Red Light Camera Tickets No Longer Issued In LA City But Still in County– blog submitted by staging-vadusuxe.kinsta.cloud, helping drivers contest and dismiss their traffic tickets.

In July of 2011 the City of Los Angeles chose to shut down their Red Light Traffic Enforcement Cameras set up at various intersections around the city. There has been much confusion since then because there are still cities within the County of Los Angeles that ARE still issuing tickets. If you get a Los Angeles Red Light traffic ticket, call us so we can help!

You won’t get a ticket from the actual City of Los Angeles anymore but know there are still numerous camera enforced intersections within the county of Los Angeles including Beverly Hills, Inglewood, Van Nuys, and West Hollywood and these cities are still issuing red light camera tickets which are valid and enforceable (although maybe not for long with more and more cities across the state attempting to shut down or suspend their cameras). –  blog submitted by staging-vadusuxe.kinsta.cloud, helping drivers contest and dismiss their traffic tickets.

Can Speeding Tickets Over 100 MPH Really be Dismissed?

Can Speeding Tickets Over 100 MPH Really be Dismissed ?-blog submitted by staging-vadusuxe.kinsta.cloud, helping drivers contest and dismiss their traffic tickets. 

If you were caught red handed speeding in excess of 100 MPH you are looking at not 1, but 2 points being added to your motor vehicle record and an expensive fine of more than $800.00! What’s more, 2 point violations stay on your record for 7 years! Compare to a 1 point violation which falls off after 3 years. If you find yourself in this situation though, all is not lost.  These types of tickets CAN be beat using a proven method called “Trial by Written Declaration”.

Take this driver who came to staging-vadusuxe.kinsta.cloud earlier this year. The driver was ticketed for 120 + MPH out in Barstow, CA while driving on the Interstate 15. staging-vadusuxe.kinsta.cloud was able to get the ticket dismissed using a Trial by Written Declaration which raised doubt as to whether the officer had pulled over the correct car on account of the driver  had just come out of bumper to bumper traffic and had no opportunity to even reach such a high speed.

Keep At Least One Ear Free While Driving

/0 Comments/in , /by

If you weren’t part of the rush that went out and bought a blue tooth ear piece after the hands free laws went into effect in California, and you aren’t one of those having the luxury of built in blue tooth installed in your vehicle, then maybe you get by with just setting the phone on your lap or wedging it between your seatbelt and chest while using headphones or ear buds so you can still listen and talk while you drive.

Did you know though, that it is illegal to have both ears covered while you are driving? That’s right; although the ticket won’t usually result in a point going on your driving record it DOES cost a pretty penny.

A ticket for having both ears covered while driving (this includes if you are on a bike!) can set you back $115 + and its one of those lesser known laws that a lot of people aren’t even aware of.
