If you have recently received a citation for Failure to Obey a Traffic Control Device in Clearwater, St. Petersburg, or the surrounding areas of Pinellas County, you may be wondering what that citation means. An allegation that you failed to obey a traffic control device means that a police officer has alleged that you have failed to abide by some sign or other marking on a road or highway. This includes stop signs, yield signs, no left turn signs, turn only errors, etc.
Getting points assessed against your license will almost always result in an increase in your insurance premiums. A conviction for Failure to Obey a Traffic Control Device can result in the imposition of three (3) points against your license. If you accumulate 12 points over a period of 12 months, your driver’s license can be suspended.

In many instances, our office is able to resolve violations of a traffic control device in a way that does not result in our client getting any points. This can occur in several ways, including asserting a defense that the sign was not reasonably visible or properly placed, or presenting mitigation to the Court in order to negotiate a no-points resolution.
Why Did I Get a Violation of a Traffic Control Device Ticket if I was only Speeding?
In some cases, a client is issued a Violation of a Traffic Control Device citation in Pinellas County for speeding. Usually, this is indicative of the client having a polite and respectful attitude with the law enforcement officer, and the officer “cut” our client a break. This is because the fine for Violation of a Traffic Control Device is substantially less than speeding.
