traffic courts
Speeding ticket venues
Traffic courts are specialized local courts that handle violations of motor vehicle laws—speeding tickets, running red lights, parking infractions, and similar offenses.
These courts process high volumes of cases quickly, often with simplified procedures.
Most traffic court cases result in fines rather than jail time: I have to appear in traffic court next Thursday.
