Frequently Asked Questions
No. California Vehicle Code §40519 allows you to contest any infraction by contesting remotely—a fully remote process. You submit a written defense; the officer submits theirs. A judge reviews both without either party present. If the officer doesn't respond within 30 days, your ticket is automatically dismissed. TDismiss handles the entire process for $89.
Yes. Highway 99 is the Central Valley's main north-south artery, and CHP patrols it heavily between Sacramento and Bakersfield. Common citations include speeding (VC 22349), unsafe lane changes near Shaw/Herndon exits, and following too closely during ag-truck traffic. Contesting remotely shifts the burden to the officer to prove the violation.
Yes. Many Yosemite visitors from out of state receive tickets on CA-41 approaching the park. Our service is specifically designed for this—you contest entirely by mail, no need to drive back to Fresno. If you were cited for "unsafe speed" (VC 22350), we challenge whether conditions actually warranted the citation.
Shaw & Blackstone is Fresno's busiest intersection and a known enforcement zone for rolling stops and red light violations. Officers often cite from difficult vantage points. Contesting remotely lets you challenge the officer's line of sight, argue you made a complete stop, or question yellow-light timing. Many citations are dismissed when officers fail to respond.
Most Fresno County traffic cases are handled at B.F. Sisk Courthouse (1100 Van Ness Ave, Downtown Fresno). But by contesting remotely, you never go there—everything is handled by mail. TDismiss files your defense directly with the court; you stay home.
VC 22350 ("Basic Speed Law") requires proving your speed was unsafe for conditions—not just over the limit. Fresno summers hit 105–115°F, which can affect road conditions (heat mirages, tire blowouts, etc.), but clear, dry pavement with light traffic generally doesn't meet the "unsafe" threshold. Contesting remotely lets you argue conditions were safe.
Yes. Any moving violation in a commercial vehicle is reported to FMCSA and your employer. Fresno is an ag-truck corridor; citations are common. A single DMV point can trigger safety reviews. Contesting remotely offers the best chance to avoid a conviction entirely—if the officer doesn't respond, the ticket is dismissed with no record.
Your "courtesy notice" lists a due date—typically 21–30 days from the citation date, sometimes up to 45 days. You must pay, appear, or request a remote written contest before that deadline. Missing it triggers a failure-to-appear (FTA) charge under VC 40508, adding $300+ to your fine and placing a DMV hold on your license.
Paying is admitting guilt. A conviction adds 1 DMV point to your record for 36 months, which insurance companies see at renewal—typically raising your premium 20–40% for a single point. remote written defense gives you a chance to avoid the conviction entirely. Even if not dismissed, reducing to a non-moving violation (0 points) protects your rate.
A moving violation conviction adds 1 DMV point, which stays for 36 months. Insurance companies check your record at renewal and typically raise premiums 20–40% for a single point. Avoiding the conviction through a successful contest prevents the point entirely. Even reducing to a non-moving violation (0 points) protects your rate.
