Video Transcript

"You've just received a traffic ticket and you are very very concerned what it's going to do with putting points on your license and affecting your driving record and of course possibly increasing your insurance rates. Hello, I'm Robert Todd and I'm here to answer the question how to defend yourself in traffic court in trial with no prosecutor. Now, if you're comfortable doing that and you don't want to spend the time and money for expertise by hiring a lawyer who regularly does this and is very much more comfortable than you are in doing so, at the very least you want to go down and take a look and see how the traffic court process works. And you can do that by going down and watching a couple of traffic court trials. But be sure that if you decide to defend yourself that you have a prepared case, that you have prepared your witnesses and you are ready to ask them questions and to stay focused. And remember if you go into traffic court, at all times be polite to the judge and be polite to the officer that gave you the traffic citation. Thank you for watching, and I'm Robert Todd."
