What Are the Consequences?
Missouri treats these violations seriously, even if no accident occurred.
A red light or stop sign ticket usually means:
2 points on your driving record
Fines between $75 and $200
Mandatory court in some cities (e.g., Kansas City, Grandview)
Insurance increases depending on your carrier
Some drivers also face reckless or careless driving charges if the officer adds additional allegations.
Missouri Law & Defense Strategy
These tickets fall under:
RSMo § 304.271: Obedience to stop signs
RSMo § 304.281: Traffic signals
In most cases, we can negotiate:
Amendments to a non-moving violation (no points)
Dismissals after driving school or deferred adjudication
Avoiding court completely for out-of-town and busy clients
