Receiving a speeding ticket in Pennsylvania can have consequences beyond simply paying a fine. Depending on how fast you were driving over the posted speed limit, PennDOT may assess points against your driving record. Accumulating too many points can lead to various legal consequences. A criminal defense lawyer can help you understand Pennsylvania’s complex point system and what legal options are available in your unique situation.

If you’ve been ticketed for a traffic violation in Pennsylvania, your first impulse may be to simply pay the ticket and put the matter behind you. Even if you’re convinced that you’re not guilty of the charge, it may seem easier to resolve the matter by paying it and moving on.

It’s important to understand, however, that when you pay a traffic ticket, you admit guilt, which can lead to points against your license, potential license suspension, and increased insurance rates.
