Deferring CDL speeding tickets

Have any of you other CAs figured out a deal you can offer to CDL holders that would get a fine out of them without them having to plead guilty to a moving violation?


As a truck driver, this legislation didn't look good initially. When I read the quote above, I changed my mind. Maybe a buried traffic court system will discourage the revenue collection machine that law enforcement has become.

There are construction zones I drive through regularly that NEVER have any construction, but always a trooper waiting to make a buck. And speeding fines have become ridiculous.

I have alway favored a proposal where the states did not get to keep fines from citations written to commercial vehicles. How can a system be equitable and just when states and municipalities use law enforcement as a revenue collection tool?
