Paying Your Speeding Ticket Is The Same As Pleading Guilty
While many drivers simply pay their speeding ticket fines, it is important to understand the full range of consequences associated with speeding tickets.
If you automatically pay your speeding ticket or other traffic citation, then the court will notify the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV). The DMV uses a point system to track traffic violations. If too many points are added to your record, then you risk a hike in automobile insurance premiums and/or loss of your driver’s license.
