What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state? Massachusset


I got a speeding ticket for going 80 in 65 zone. This is my first ticket ever. The officer checked estimated on the ticket. I am mainly concerned about points. Is there any option that I can get away with points? Any traffic calss option or so ? What is the proceedure to do so ? Should I appeal the ticket ? How much are my chances to win the court?

Please let me know,

Welcome to Massachusetts

There are no points here, instead you have SDIP steps. You will have the same surcharge in steps regardless the speed (minor traffic violation), see link below (not a solicitation for that site).

No traffic school either. You should indeed try to appeal, first in magistrate and then for extra $20 in real court, see earlier posts on the details.

My license is issued in Ohio. Does this make a difference in this case?

It may. I had swithched over to MA license from PA, and my points did not follow me.
