This comprehensive guide provides a detailed overview of the Tennessee system for traffic violations and driver management, overseen by the DSHS and MVC. Please familiarise yourself with the distinction between moving violations, such as speeding and reckless driving, and non-moving offences. Please familiarise yourself with the severe consequences of felony traffic violations, such as aggravated vehicular homicide (Class A Felony) and DUI causing injury (Class C Felony). The MVC Point System is a system that assigns points based on the severity of the offence. Should a driver accumulate twelve or more points within a twelve-month period, their licence will be suspended. Drivers have two options for handling a traffic ticket: paying the fine (admitting guilt) or contesting the citation in court. Furthermore, you will find a simple process for obtaining a crash report online or by mail, which is required for accidents resulting in injury, fatality or property damage of fifty dollars or more. The state continues to combat high traffic fatality rates, partly attributed to impaired driving and high rates of truck registration.
