How Do You Respond To A Pennsylvania Traffic Citation?
• Review the citation. Read through each section to make sure you understand the violation you allegedly committed, the fine and additional court costs, and all of the additional comments. • Ensure that your name, address, license information, and vehicle information are all correct. Contrary to common belief, just because a part of a citation is incorrect does not mean it will be automatically thrown out in court. However, it is still crucial to check all of these fields on the citation. • Research the violation online. Pennsylvania has various forms of the vehicle code offered online, including on the Pennsylvania legislature’s website. The statute section for your violation will be located in box 27 on the right side of the citation. Enter this number, along with “Pennsylvania Title 75” into a search engine to read exactly what that specific section of the motor vehicle code says. A copy of the motor vehicle code (Title 75) is in the sources below. • Acknowledge your options. Pennsy
