Can You Fight Speeding Tickets in Florida?
Yes, you can fight a speeding ticket in Florida – and doing so may help you avoid points on your license, reduce fines, or even have the case dismissed entirely. Just because you were issued a citation doesn’t mean you're automatically guilty. With the right legal representation, there are several effective strategies to challenge the ticket and protect your driving record.
Common defenses against speeding tickets include:
- Radar or laser device errors - Speed-measuring equipment must be properly calibrated and operated by trained officers. Any issues can cast doubt on the accuracy of the reading.
- Improper traffic stop - If the officer lacked probable cause or didn't follow protocol, the stop may be legally invalid.
- Mistaken identity or unclear signage - In some cases, the wrong vehicle may have been stopped, or unclear speed limit signs may provide grounds for dismissal.
- Clerical or procedural mistakes - Errors in the ticket details or in how the case is handled can be used to challenge the citation.
- Speeding due to an emergency - If you were speeding to avoid harm or during a legitimate emergency, the court may take that into account.

What Happens If You Don’t Pay for Your Speeding Ticket?
Ignoring a speeding ticket may seem like a minor issue, but in Florida, it can quickly spiral into a much bigger problem. Failing to pay or respond to a traffic citation on time can result in serious legal, financial, and personal consequences. At the Law Office of Randy Maultasch, we’ve seen firsthand how quickly an unpaid ticket can affect a driver’s life, and we’re here to help you avoid those outcomes.
Potential consequences of not paying your speeding ticket include:
- Driver’s license suspension - Florida law allows the DMV to suspend your license if a speeding ticket goes unpaid after 30 days.
- Late fees and civil penalties - Additional fines are added to your original ticket, increasing your total financial obligation.
- Bench warrant for arrest - If your ticket requires a court appearance and you miss the date, a warrant may be issued for your arrest.
- Misdemeanor charges - Prolonged non-compliance can lead to criminal charges, which carry heavier penalties and a permanent record.
- Vehicle registration block - You may be unable to renew your vehicle registration until the ticket and all related fees are resolved.
- Points on your driving record - Speeding adds 3 to 6 points, depending on severity. Too many points in a short time can trigger automatic license suspension.
- Increased insurance premiums - Points and violations can lead to significant hikes in your auto insurance rates.
Don’t let a simple mistake cost you your license, your freedom, or your finances. With over 40 years of experience and thousands of traffic cases resolved, the Law Office of Randy Maultasch is ready to help you fight your speeding ticket and protect your record.
