Frequently Asked Questions
Here you can find the answers to some commonly asked questions.Q: Can traffic citation fines be paid online?
A: Yes, Florida Uniform Traffic Citations can be paid by going to MyFloridaCounty.com or the Bradford County Clerk of Court website. School zone speed camera violations can be paid by going to the contracted vendor's website at secure.speedviolation.com or by calling 1-888-212-4258.
Q: I received a school zone speed camera violation in the mail. Is it a legitimate violation?
A: Florida law was changed in 2023 to allow speed cameras within school zones. A contracted vendor mails out speed camera violations to the registered owner of a vehicle for vehicles driving more than 10 MPH over the speed limit during the posted school hours. The vendor can be reached by calling 1-888-212-4258 or by visiting the online payment website secure.speedviolation.com. The speed camera violation will not impact vehicle insurance or add points to the driver's license (F.S. 322.27). However, if the recipient of a speed camera violation does not pay or take any action then a Uniform Traffic Citation can be issued (F.S. 316.1896) which could have a higher fine and points to the driver's license.
