Frequently asked questions
Do Florida red light camera tickets add points?
A camera Notice of Violation paid at $158 adds no points and isn't reported to insurers. Ignore it, though, and it becomes a uniform traffic citation with higher cost and real record consequences.
Can a lawyer beat an officer-issued red light ticket in Florida?
Often the citation can be dismissed or adjudication withheld — signal-timing evidence, intersection sightlines, and the officer's vantage point are all contestable. Attorneys in our network handle these hearings routinely.
Is turning right on red a violation if the camera flashed?
Florida law bars camera citations for careful and prudent right turns on red. If your notice came from a rolling right turn, that's frequently a winnable challenge.
What does it really cost to just pay the ticket?
Paying an officer-issued citation is a conviction — 4 points plus an insurance surcharge that usually dwarfs the fine over three years. Contesting it typically comes out cheaper.
