Traffic Ticket Myths Debunked

Traffic laws vary drastically among states.  However, your Google search probably does very little to differentiate which laws apply to your ticket.  Even if you do find Georgia law, it is probably outdated or inapplicable to your case.  Why?  Georgia’s legislators change the traffic laws almost every year.  The information available online usually leaves out important information that you never knew to ask.  For example, pleading “no contest” (nolo contendere) is usually not the best choice to avoid points on your license.  Paying the fine does not just make the citation go away.  When you pay by phone, you are entering a guilty plea that will stay on your driving history.

Out-of-State Drivers

Even the most basic traffic ticket can become a big deal if you live out of state.  Your options are limited significantly simply by the fact that it may cost you hundreds or even thousands of dollars to return to Georgia to deal with your ticket.  Furthermore, your home state will likely find out about the ticket and it could affect your license there.  The attorneys at Lankford & Moore Law know how to save you time and money with your Georgia traffic citation.  In most cases, they can handle the ticket without you ever having to return to Georgia.  You won’t have to become an expert in Georgia traffic law when you hire a professional at Lankford & Moore Law.
