I believe speeding tickets are generally civil summary offenses. Criminal summary offenses are apparently even called "non-traffic summary offenses" in some places to distinguish them. Every speeding ticket I've ever gotten specifically noted that it was a civil infraction. When a police error resulted a summons for attaching license plates to a car they weren't registered to, the ticket in the mail specifically said it was a criminal infraction.

- REvsCfiwW7nP4u7 4y agoIn Texas traffic tickets are criminal offenses, generally class C misdemeanors. I don't think we're unique in that, either. For this reason many questions baout crimes you may have committed will ask "other than misdemeanor traffic offenses" or such...
- chefandy 4y agoYes, surely there are exceptions.
