Frequently asked questions
How many points is speeding in Pennsylvania?
It scales with speed: roughly 2 points for 6–10 mph over, 3 points for 11–15, 4 points for 16–25, and 5 points for 26 or more over. At 31+ mph over, PennDOT also summons you to a departmental hearing that can suspend your license.
Can a Pennsylvania speeding ticket be reduced?
Frequently. Attorneys in our network routinely negotiate with the officer before the summary hearing to amend the charge to a lower speed bracket or a 0-point violation like an obedience-to-traffic-devices offense.
Do I have to show up at the magisterial district court?
In many districts a licensed Pennsylvania attorney can appear and resolve the ticket on your behalf, especially when a negotiated amendment is worked out ahead of the hearing date.
How do points come off a Pennsylvania record?
PennDOT removes 3 points for each 12 consecutive months you drive violation-free, and passing the special exam after your first 6-point accumulation removes 2 more. The conviction itself, though, is what insurers see.
Is pleading not guilty by mail an option?
You can plead not guilty and post collateral by mail to get a hearing date — but showing up unrepresented usually means paying the full charge. We connect you with a Pennsylvania attorney who negotiates before that hearing.
