Premium Membership
The Premium Membership Option is designed to provide NMA members with valuable benefits while promoting the NMA's goal of encouraging members to challenge traffic citations they believe to be unfair or illegal. Here's how the Premium Membership Option works.
- You must be a member in good standing of the NMA.
- As a subscriber to the Premium Membership Option, you will be eligible for a grant of up to $300 or the stated cost (often referred to as "bail") whichever is less, for each traffic ticket involving a moving violation and the issuance of points against your driver's license. The subscriber must have a valid driver's license at the time the ticket is received. Persons holding multiple driver licenses from different states (illegal) may not participate in this program. The receipt of the ticket and submission to the NMA will trigger payment to the subscriber. The subscriber may then use the funds to develop his or her own defense, apply the payment toward an attorney, or pay the fine. (Please note this important distinction; Premium Membership subscribers are NOT required to pay the fine to obtain their grant payment.)
- Premium Membership subscribers will not lose their regular NMA Traffic Justice Program benefit. The Premium Membership subscriber will first receive a grant for the amount of the speeding ticket. If the subscriber pleads "not guilty," takes the ticket to trial, and loses, he/she will also be reimbursed for the cost of the ticket assessed at the trial. Yes, you read that right.
- The Premium Membership Option will cost $10 per month (above the regular membership price). Payment will be charged to a credit card on a monthly basis and subscribers may discontinue their Premium Membership at any time.
- An annual payment by check or credit card will be accepted. However, annual subscribers will not be sent a special renewal notice each year. You must call 800/882-2785 to utilize this specific payment method.
- This program applies only to tickets that you have received after you have signed up for the Premium Membership. Tickets you received before becoming a Premium Member are not eligible.
This is a straight forward program that rewards and assists you in the challenge of unfair or illegal traffic tickets. Win, lose, or draw you receive your grant up front and without strings attached. We're serious about making it possible for our members to stand up for their rights. Rights are like most other things in life, if they aren't exercised they atrophy and disappear. Consider that $10 payment as your membership in the health club for motorists' rights.
The benefits of this membership will begin on the first of the month following your enrollment. Your initial charge for the Premium Membership Option will be on that day as well.
