Protest a Speeding Ticket

Important: Do not pay the speeding ticket if you plan to protest it. 

You must start your protest (Admin Review) within 30 days of the "Issue Date" found on your Speeding Ticket (Notice of Violation). Decision letters are sent by mail only within 60 days of the date of the challenge.

There are a couple situations that may apply to you:

  • The car was recently sold
  • The car was rented out to another person
  • The car was stolen 

If none of these situations apply, you can submit a General Protest

See below for details on how to submit a protest for any of the above cases.
