TICKET review
To Review a Violation
Parking
Violation Notice (PVN) recipients are required by law to
either pay the fine or request a review within 15 calendar days of the
violation date; otherwise, you will be assessed an additional $20.00 late
fee and forfeit your right for review.
In order to facilitate your review,
recipients must complete the information on the front of the ticket, check
the appropriate box indicating the type of review, and return both the
ticket and review to the Department of Transportation Services (DOTS), in
the envelope provided. Recipients may request a review either through the
DOTS or the Prince George's County District Court (PGCDC). If you request a
DOTS review please insert a written explanation on a separate sheet of paper
and, if appropriate, attach any supporting documentation...
Choice of one review process
waives choice of the other process.
