I have a Texas CDL and want to know how to keep points off after receiving a speeding ticket in my wifes car?

I don't have anything against my CDL but I received a 13 mph over ticket this weekend while I was driving my wife's car.

If I ask for a defferal will this keep points from being added to my license?

me too, but got it in natchitoches parish
by: saltwaterboy

I just got a 13mph over in my personal car in natchitoches parish, la. They attached a form to the ticket saying that i have "been selected to participate in the district attorneys traffic diversion program".

The form doesn't make any mention of excluding cdl license holders. They want $271.00 to "participate" and it will not appear on my dmv or driving record.

I think that either they don't know or don't care about the anti-masking clause for cdl drivers or they simply forgot to exclude cdl drivers on the participation form.

What do you think my chances are that if i sent them the money order, that it wouldn't appear on my record?

pay the fine with money order and write the ticket number on it and do it fedex overnite. dont sign the ticket just get the fine in quick. some clerks still close out the ticket when its paid by money oreder and if not well its still not 15 over.....

good luck.

CDL holders and deferments
by: Hervy

It's my understanding that a CDL holder isn't eligible for deferment.
