Paying a ticket is pleading guilty — points, insurance hikes, done. FixTicket builds a court-ready appeal letter around the facts of your citation in about 5 minutes.
*Premium increases from a single moving violation, compounded over the 3–5 years it stays on your record.
Violation type, state, citation number, what actually happened. Two minutes, plain English, no legal jargon.
Calibration gaps, obscured signage, short yellow lights, factual errors on the ticket — the angles that actually get tickets thrown out.
Get a court-ready appeal letter plus a step-by-step filing checklist for your state — including the mail-in "trial by written declaration" option where available.
Here's the honest math on the three ways out of a ticket.
| FixTicket | Pay the fine | Hire a lawyer | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Upfront cost | $14.99 once | $100–$500 fine | $200–$500+ |
| Insurance impact | ✓ Fight to keep it clean | ✗ Hikes for 3–5 years | ✓ Usually avoided |
| Points on license | ✓ You contest them | ✗ Automatic guilty plea | ✓ Contested for you |
| Your time | ~5 minutes + mail/drop-off | 0 (but costs most long-term) | Calls, consults, retainer |
| Court appearance | ✓ Written defense where allowed | ✗ N/A — you gave up | ✓ Usually not required |
| Risk if it fails | 60-day refund | Full cost locked in | Fee usually non-refundable |
Every letter is built around your state's rules — including California's trial by written declaration, Texas deferred disposition, Florida traffic school elections, and New York's TVB hearings.
Calibration records, pacing errors, the "basic speed law" defense — and when each one works.
Yellow-interval timing, camera reliability, and the "I wasn't the driver" defense.
Broken meters, bad signage, photo evidence — the cheapest ticket to beat, if you document it.
