Traffic Safety Program Overview

The Traffic Safety Program (TSP) enables approved defendants, who have voluntarily entered a Plea of Guilty to a minor misdemeanor traffic citation issued within the jurisdiction of the Miamisburg Municipal Court, to have their cases dismissed upon successful completion of the Program and payment of the Program fee.

Eligible defendants have an opportunity to attend an online course as approved by the Miamisburg Municipal Court. The class will provide helpful driving tips on a variety of topics related to the safe operation of a motor vehicle. Upon successful completion of the approximately 2-hour online TSP class, and documentation submitted, the Court will DISMISS the traffic case resulting in NO POINTS on the defendant’s record.

The Prosecutor’s Office or the Court may review and refer cases to determine eligibility for the Traffic Safety Program. The minimum criteria for participating in the Traffic Safety Program are:

  • A two-point minor misdemeanor traffic violation with no accompanying criminal charges (Reckless Operation with approval by a Judge, Magistrate or Prosecutor);
  • The traffic case does not involve an accident or property damage;
  • The defendant has not participated in the Traffic Safety Program within the last 24 months;
  • A valid driver’s license at the time of the plea;
  • DID NOT HOLD A COMMERCIAL DRIVER’S LICENSE (CDL) AT TIME OF VIOLATION.

Steps of the Traffic Safety Program

On or before the court date on the citation you must do the following:

  • Defendant is referred for the Traffic Safety Program by the Prosecutor or the Court;
  • Defendant is advised of the terms and conditions of the Traffic Safety Program;
  • Defendant enters a conditional guilty plea and signs the form agreeing to participate in the Traffic Safety Program;
  • The Court Stays Defendant’s Sentence of Fines and Costs;
  • Defendant pays the $200.00 TSP fee as soon as forms are submitted and approved;

FAILING TO COMPLETE THE TRAFFIC SAFETY PROGRAM

  • Defendant fails to pay the $200.00 Traffic Safety Program fee;
  • Defendant fails to complete the TSP class within 60 days after payment of the program fee;
  • Defendant fails to submit documentation to the Court.

CONSEQUENCES OF FAILING TO COMPLETE TRAFFIC SAFETY PROGRAM

  • Conviction will be forwarded to the Bureau of Motor Vehicles, where points will be added to the defendant’s driving record;
  • Failure to pay program cost will result in your owing fines and court costs in an amount equal to what is normally processed by the waiver bureau;
  • Non-payment of fines and court costs will result in a warrant block being issued after 45 days has passed, which prohibits you from renewing your operator’s license and/or vehicle registration.

WARNING: NO CONTINUANCES WILL BE ACCEPTED AND NO REFUNDS WILL BE GIVEN FOR NOT COMPLETING TSP CLASS. THE $200.00 TSP FEE IS NON-REFUNDABLE
