Charlotte speeding ticket
If you have a Charlotte Speeding Ticket you need to know the local rules for obtaining a reduction. Generally speaking the best reduction option is an Improper Equipment, which is a non-moving violation and carries no insurance or DMV points. To qualify for a reduction to Improper Equipment in Mecklenburg County you generally must meet three requirements:
Mecklenburg County and Improper Equipment reduction1) No moving violations in the last 3 years.
2) No Driving While Impaired (DWI) convictions. 3) Not charged with going more than 18 mph over the limit. (rule has been relaxed) |
If you meet the above the requirements you may qualify to obtain a reduction to Improper Equipment. The fine and Court costs for a reduction to improper equipment generally total $266. Our usual fee is $200 depending on the speed. The total of $466 includes us obtaining a hard copy of your DMV record to show the Assistant District Attorney and attending Court on your behalf. This saves you the inconvenience of paying for a DMV record, taking time off work, paying to park uptown, and waiting in Court.
If you do not meet the requirements to qualify for a reduction to Improper Equipment you may qualify for a Prayer for Judgment Continued (PJC) or a reduction in speed.
