Who Writes the Tickets in Yeadon

The Delaware County Sheriff's Office and the agency that reports for Yeadon (filed by the FBI as Yeadon Police Department) write the traffic tickets in and around Yeadon.

The FBI's agency list also places three state agencies, three other agencies, three campus police departments and one state police unit in Delaware County (the arrest records guide names each one); the Delaware County State Police writes the tickets on the state highways.

The Driving Record and the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation

Convictions are reported by the court to the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation, which keeps the driving record and decides on points and suspensions. Order the driving record from that agency, not from the court.

Paying a ticket is a conviction, reported to the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation 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 PennDOT (see Yeadon DUI).
