DEFERRED PROSECUTION INFORMATION
Utah Code § 77-2-4.2(5)
Deferred Traffic Prosecution
What is Deferred Traffic Prosecution?
It’s an opportunity to have your traffic citation dismissed from your driving record.
You can apply online by answering questions in a guided interview.
You’ll pay a total fine and an administrative fee (the total fine is the same as it would be if you appeared in court).
You’ll enter a plea and agree to not get a traffic conviction in a 12-month period.
The process is completely voluntary.
You can choose not to participate in Deferred Traffic Prosecution and instead go through the normal processes. That would involve either paying a fine or going to court on your court date to challenge the ticket.
