Quick traffic question.

I live in Colorado and got pulled over for running a stop sign. I got a warning for the stop sign but I didn't have my up to date insurance on me. I was insured at the time and I can prove this with my insurance card. Does anyone have any experience with this and know what I'm looking at punishment-wise?

What happens to you really is dependent on which courthouse you have to appear at (and whether the judge is pissed off or not).

If you can provide proof that you had valid insurance at the time of the accident, just didn't have proof at the time of the citation, you might be able to get the citation dismissed. Otherwise, they can level a kind of hefty fine on you.

Just go in there with recent statements from your company and your card, and explain yourself to the clerk.

Wow, thank you very much for the speedy and helpful reply.

Makes you feel good?

recommend calling the court. They may let you just fax in some info or come whenever you want. Saves you going to court, which is 2-3 hours of sitting on your rear end followed by 2 minutes of looking at your insurance card.

A little late but Goddamn, thank you thank you thank you. Before I posted in this thread I thought I'd miss a morning full of classes and have to pay court fees. I called over there and now I just have to swing by the courthouse at my leisure and show them the card. Thank you so very much.
