Criminal Speeding Ticket – Arizona

Most of us have either had a speeding ticket or have that friend who has never had a speeding ticket and makes sure that everyone around them knows it. Maybe you are that friend (no judgment from us). Either way, the common speeding ticket that most think of is civil in nature. These generally come with a fine around $200 and sometimes can be extinguished with the attendance of defensive driving school (DDS). This will depend on if/when you have attended driving DDS in the past.
