traffic ticket

Commercial trucking and interstate shipping make up the backbone of our economy. Unfortunately, all those trucks rolling from state to state are an easy target for police as they look to write revenue generating truck enforcement tickets.

Truck enforcement tickets can take several forms. The most common way to get one is when officers wait at or near state borders and conduct seemingly random safety checks. Police know that every state is different, and each state has differing regulations, on top of the U.S. Department of Transportation regulations.

As a truck crisscrosses the country, It is nearly impossible for a truck to be in compliance with each state’s regulations without also being in conflict with another one of the regulations issued by another state which the driver may need to cross.

As a result, states like Pennsylvania, and even the City of Philadelphia have special truck enforcement ticket divisions who only specialize in stopping out of state trucks and issuing revenue generating tickets.

Any knowledgeable CDL Ticket Lawyer will give you this simple advice. When it comes to CDL drivers with traffic violations – you cannot afford to pay for your ticket. Your commercial drivers’ license took a lot of time and effort. More importantly, it is not just your license – it is your livelihood.

Will This Kind of Citation Affect My CDL or Employment?
