Beaverton Traffic School Options
The Beaverton Municipal Court offers a traffic school option for eligible drivers. Completing traffic school can result in your violation being dismissed, which keeps it off your driving record. This is often the best outcome for drivers who want to avoid points and insurance rate increases tied to a traffic conviction.
To qualify for traffic school in Beaverton, you must meet several conditions. Your violation cannot be a Class A traffic offense. You must not have any traffic convictions in the past two years. Drivers with a commercial driver's license are not eligible for the program. The court reviews each request on a case-by-case basis, so contact them early to find out if your violation qualifies.
Note: You should ask about traffic school before you pay your fine. Paying the fine is the same as entering a guilty plea, and you may lose the chance to attend traffic school once payment is made. Call the court at 503-526-2290 to discuss your options before taking any action on your citation.
Beaverton Specialty Court Programs
Beaverton Municipal Court operates a Behavioral Health Court for certain cases. This specialty court addresses cases where mental health or substance use plays a role in the offense. While most standard traffic tickets do not go through this program, some cases involving impaired driving may be directed to specialty court resources.
For DUII cases handled in Beaverton, the court may require participation in specific programs. These can include B-SOBR, Victim Impact Panel sessions, and ADES evaluations. These programs focus on treatment and accountability rather than just fines and penalties. Each program has its own requirements and timelines that the court will explain at your hearing.
Standard traffic violations in Beaverton do not involve these programs. If you received a routine speeding ticket or red light violation, your case will follow the normal process through the municipal court. The specialty programs apply only to cases with specific circumstances that the judge determines are appropriate.
Beaverton Photo Enforcement Records
Beaverton operates red light cameras and speed cameras at various intersections throughout the city. These automated systems capture photos of vehicles that run red lights or exceed the speed limit. When a camera records a violation, a citation is mailed to the registered owner of the vehicle. The ticket includes photos of the vehicle and the violation details.
Photo enforcement tickets in Beaverton are processed through the Municipal Court just like officer-issued citations. You have the same options for responding to a camera ticket as you do for any other traffic violation. You can pay the fine, contest the ticket, or ask about traffic school if you are eligible. The fine amounts and deadlines will be listed on the citation you receive in the mail.
If you were not the driver when the photo was taken, contact the court to discuss your options. The court can provide instructions on how to handle a ticket when someone else was behind the wheel of your vehicle at the time of the violation.
Washington County Justice Court
Some traffic cases in the Beaverton area are handled by the Washington County Justice Court rather than the Beaverton Municipal Court. This court is located at 3700 SW Murray Boulevard, Room 2400, in Beaverton. The Justice Court handles traffic violations issued by certain agencies operating in Washington County, including some tickets written within Beaverton city limits.
Arraignments at the Washington County Justice Court are held Monday through Thursday at 9 a.m. Spanish language arraignments are available on Tuesdays at 2 p.m. If you miss your arraignment, the court automatically grants a one-week extension before taking further action. This gives you a short window to contact the court and reschedule.
The Justice Court accepts cash, money orders, checks, Visa, Discover, and MasterCard for payments. Credit card payments can also be made by phone Monday through Friday during business hours. If your traffic ticket was issued in the Beaverton area but lists the Washington County Justice Court, make sure you contact that court and not the Beaverton Municipal Court.
Note: Check your citation carefully to see which court is listed. The Beaverton Municipal Court and the Washington County Justice Court are two separate courts with different locations, phone numbers, and procedures.
