PA Junior Driver’s License and Traffic Tickets

If you have a PA junior driver’s license, think twice before you plead guilty to any traffic ticket. PA Junior Driver’s License and Traffic Tickets are a tricky mix.

Junior Driver’s License

Young drivers are typically those with a driver’s license under the age of 18. They will be issued a junior license when they successfully complete the driving test and all learner’s permit requirements. There are strict requirements for those issued a junior license. If you find yourself with a traffic citation, it is important to call an attorney BEFORE you plead guilty or pay a fine. Failure to hire an attorney, could result in a mandatory 90-day license suspension.

One restriction for young drivers is they may not drive between the hours of 11 p.m. and 5 a.m. There are exceptions to this rule. Second restriction is a passenger limitation.
