Certain traffic violations and criminal offenses can be waived - that is you can admit guilt and pay your fines and court costs without having to come to court. Other violations REQUIRE a court appearance under the law. Below you will find a list of the mandatory appearances as well as those that are waiverable.
If you have been cited for one of the following violations, you are REQUIRED to appear in court on the date listed at the bottom of your citation:
ALL VIOLATIONS REQUIRE PROOF OF INSURANCE FOR THE DATE OF THE CITATION. IF YOUR TICKET IS MARKED "FR NOT SHOWN" YOU MUST BRING PROOF TO COURT. DO NOT BRING INVOICES OR APPLICATIONS. YOU NEED AN INSURANCE CARD WITH EFFECTIVE DATES FOR THE CAR LISTED ON THE CITATION, OR A COPY OF YOUR INSURANCE POLICY.
FAILURE TO PROVIDE PROOF OF INSURANCE WILL RESULT IN A SUSPENSION OF YOUR LICENSE IMPOSED BY THE OHIO BUREAU OF MOTOR VEHICLES FOR A MINIMUM OF 90 DAYS.
The following traffic violations may be waived by paying the amounts shown next to the citation. Waivers must be paid in full - NO PARTIAL PAYMENTS! If you received more than one violation on the face of the traffic ticket, you must pay the amount listed for each violation.
