What is a criminal traffic charge?

A criminal traffic charge, such as driving under the influence, requires a court appearance, because it carries criminal penalties which may include fines and costs, probation and/or the possibility of a jail term. Payment of the citation cannot be automatically made to the Clerk's Office. Persons charged with a criminal offense will be sent a notice showing when they must appear in court.
