Frequently asked questions
Do Delaware red light camera tickets carry points?
No — camera tickets in Delaware are civil penalties against the vehicle owner with no points and no insurance reporting. A ticket handed to you by an officer is different: that's a moving violation with points.
Can an attorney get a Delaware red light ticket reduced?
Frequently. Attorneys in our network negotiate with the prosecuting officer or Deputy AG for a reduction or dismissal, especially where the evidence on the light's timing or your position at the line is weak.
Is a stop sign ticket treated the same as a red light ticket?
Both are failure-to-obey-traffic-device violations in Delaware with similar fines and points, and both are worth contesting rather than paying by mail.
What happens if I just pay the ticket?
Paying is a conviction: points on your DMV record and an insurance surcharge that typically outlasts the fine by years. That math is why most people who run the numbers choose to fight.
