If you are issued a traffic violation in Athens Georgia, your traffic ticket will contain information on where and how to pay the citation. Athens Georgia courts require that all traffic tickets be paid two weeks prior to the court date stated on the traffic citation. If you choose to contest the ticket, your traffic citation will also provide information on how to do so. Traffic violations in Athens Georgia are handled separately by each county that issues the traffic ticket. If you do appear in Athens Georgia court and plead guilty, judges can also reduce the severity of your violation at their discretion, such as lowering a reckless driving claim to a mere speeding ticket.
Athens Georgia drivers receive points on their Athens Georgia driving record each time they are convicted of one of several traffic violations, including speeding tickets. If you are 21 years or older and are issued 15 points on your driving record in a two-year time span, Athens Georgia courts and the Athens Georgia Department of Driving Services may suspend your license for a minimum of six months, and may even revoke your Athens Georgia driving privileges. This can occur if you receive just four points on your license if you are under the age of 21.
If you participate in an approved online Athens Georgia defensive driving program, Athens Georgia courts will consider removing points from your driving record. Athens Georgia law mandates that you can only participate in one online defensive driving program every five years in order to have points removed off your Athens Georgia driving record. As a rule, the Athens Georgia courts do not remove traffic violations from your record merely by enrolling in an online traffic school program. However, the judge court overseeing your traffic violation will consider dismissing the ticket entirely if you have a good driving record and enroll in a Athens Georgia online defensive driving program. The Athens Georgia court that is handling your traffic violation will let you know if you can qualify for this opportunity.
Maintaining a Athens Georgia driving record that is free of traffic violations will assist you in several ways. In addition to avoiding costly fines, a clean Athens Georgia driving record helps ensure your driver's license is not suspended or revoked. Also, by keeping your Athens Georgia driving record clear, you will be able to maintain lower car insurance payments. By preventing traffic violations from ending up on your Athens Georgia driving history, you help prevent your insurance premiums from being raised by your auto insurance provider.
A good Athens Georgia driving record may even qualify you for an insurance discount, particularly if you are a mature driver over the age of 50, or a juvenile driver under the age of 18. If you have traffic violations on your Athens Georgia driving history, you can have violations reduced or even taken off your Athens Georgia driving record entirely by attending traffic school.
In addition, online traffic school helps you to develop and improve your driving abilities and defensive driving techniques so that you can better avoid traffic violations in the future.
If you would like to attend traffic school in a traditional classroom setting, Athens Georgia also offers a wide array of state-approved schools:
