Speeders and other traffic violators
who now face a roadside dilemma about whether to pay a ticket or fight it in
court would get a breather under a bill passed by the Legislature.
Lawmakers were unanimous during the
recent session in approving legislation that changes the sometimes-confusing
traffic citation process in New
Mexico
Under the proposed change,
all citations would be sent to courts, rather than the current practice of
having some sent to the Motor Vehicle Division. Now, a motorist who’s stopped for
speeding must decide on the spot whether to plead guilty and be issued a ticket
payable to the MVD, or go to magistrate court or Bernalillo County Metropolitan Court
