Orlando Area Speeding Ticket Statistics

In 2012 approximately 10,856 of the 53,981 speeding tickets went in front of a judge or hearing officer in Orange County. 2,978 speeding tickets were dismissed based on the officer not showing up, not listing the speed detection device and serial number on the citation or various other mistakes or defects that can result in dismissal. The shocking statistic is that only 1 speeding ticket that went to traffic court out of over 10,000 was found not guilty at hearing. It’s understandable that an officer is not going to stop the wrong car most of the time or make up a story to give a random driver a speeding ticket but these numbers are a little shocking. Most drivers are able to avoid points by requesting a hearing. For more information on speeding tickets in Orange County contact Orlando Traffic ticket attorney Kevin J. Pitts.
