Why you might still have to pay red light or speed cam ticket in Tennessee and other states:
In Tennessee, red light and speed camera tickets are often treated as civil notices rather than moving violations. This means that while they are not subject to the same penalties as traditional traffic tickets, they can still have legal implications. Here are some reasons why you might still have to pay a red light or speed camera ticket in Tennessee:
- Civil Judgment: If you choose not to pay, there is a possibility of a civil judgment being entered against you. This could impact your credit or lead to a collection agency becoming involved.
- Collection Agency: Municipalities can pursue unpaid fines through collection agencies, which could appear on your credit report and negatively impact your credit score.
- Insurance Premiums: Non-payment of these civil penalties cannot be reported to credit agencies or insurance providers, so your insurance premiums should not increase as a direct result.
-
Credit Reporting: While the state law provides protections against negative impacts on your credit report, ignoring the notice is not without potential consequences.
- It is important to understand the legal standing of these notices and the potential consequences of not paying them. If you believe you are not required to pay, it is advisable to check the specifics of your situation and whether the Freedom from Traffic Camera Act applies to your case.
