Vehicle Code

 
MAINE TRAFFIC SCHOOL ONLINE SPONSOR
The successful completion of a course from one of the approved Maine traffic schools may prevent violations from damaging your driving record. While in many cases a course just might get a traffic ticket dismissed, attending traffic school can also enhance your driving knowledge and skill level, and it may increase your overall safety awareness so that you, your family, and other drivers can be safer on the roads.

Content of the Vehicle Code

Maine's Motor Vehicle Code comprises the laws passed for the protection and safety of drivers and pedestrians. If you're stopped by a police officer and ticketed ―or worse―it's because you violated one of the laws listed below.

If you want to study before taking a learner's permit exam, these laws are the basis for the questions. Also, if you want to dispute a violation, you'll need to check these vehicle codes to build your case before the judge.

The Vehicle Code's Chapters

Maine's Vehicle Code is packed with chapters that are loaded with legalese. Not all of the chapters or subsections will interest you, but take a look at the following topics (it's common to see these cited on traffic tickets):

Maine Motor Vehicle Code: Title 29-A Motor Vehicles

Check Your License Status

Whenever you need or want to check the status of your driver’s license, you can order a driving record report. This record will spell out if your driver’s license is currently valid. Should your license have been revoked or suspended, the report will indicate that according to what’s on record at the BMV. This report will also show points against your license and, in some cases, information on any accidents you have had.
