A traffic infraction can cause your insurance premiums to rise dramatically. If you forget to take care of the infraction, it could lead to suspension of your driving privileges. Some traffic offenses are even classified as misdemeanor criminal offenses, leading to fines, probation, and possible jail time, as well as license suspension.

Don't think traffic offenses are unbeatable. As with any action by the government against a citizen, the police must strictly follow all applicable rules and procedures. Even if the charge is valid, it is often possible to have a moving violation, such as speeding, amended to a non-moving violation, such as expired vehicle tabs. Although this isn't as good as winning outright, it can save you hundreds of dollars in insurance premiums.
