Can you buy a hand gun in the state of Arizona if you have a warrant for a traffic ticket?

Yes you can still buy a gun. If its a criminal charge for traffic no you cant but for a civil charge you might pay a hefty fine but usually no jail time and you can still buy a gun. The backround checks to see if your a felon or mentally unstable but not for a civil traffic ticket that would be a joke and a violation of your civil rights.


What if wrong name on traffic violation in Texas?

Well if your driver's license number is on the citation that's what they will suspend when you dont pay the fine. If you contest in court they will amend the name and the court will correct it. I had a similar case and my defense was that the fine was not for me and that the number was incorrect giving mine by mistake. In this case I won but every case and judge are diferent.

What happens if an uninsured driver in an insured car is cited for a traffic violation or is involved in an accident?

Insurance follows the car, not the driver. If you had permission to use it you should be fine. If you were cited for a traffic violation, you should just pay it ahead of time and then apologize profusely to your friend, since you just raised his rates for several years. If there was an accident and it involved any serious amount of money / injury, shell out the $70 and ask an attorney.

You are 18 an you got caught doin 90mph in a 55 mile zone?

Ok ... congratulations, if that's what you want. Going that fast could result in a misdemeanor charge in some states. So, you pay the fine or go to traffic school and have the violation removed from your record. If you elect not to go to traffic school, then the speeding violation will remain on your driving record for about 39 months.

How do you write a good written statement to court to beat a traffic violation?

You don't...usually you have make an appearance in Court if you are attempting to plead not-guilty to a traffic violation. Once you plead not guilty then you will be scheduled for a trial. This will allow for you (defendant) to show proof the traffic citation was in error as a mistake of the issuing law enforcement officer. Be prepared to be cross examined by the Traffic Court judge, as it takes more time & energy to fight a citation than it does to pay the fine and/or traffic school. At least in California.
