Who Writes the Tickets in Springville
The St. Clair County Sheriff's Office and the agency that reports for Springville (filed by the FBI as Springville Police Department) write the traffic tickets in and around Springville.
The Trussville Police Department and the Leeds Police Department are each listed by the FBI across several counties including St. Clair County, so their arrests are not broken out for St. Clair County here.
The Driving Record and the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency
The driving record is a separate document from the court file. It is kept by the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency, which adds each conviction the court reports and handles suspensions; the court does not issue driving records.
Paying a ticket is a conviction, reported to the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency like any other; contesting it means a plea of not guilty entered with the court by the date on the ticket.
A DUI is a criminal charge rather than a ticket, with its own license case before ALEA (see Springville DUI).
