Man Pleads Guilty to Tag Violation

Only one case was on Tuesday evening’s Dacula Municipal Court calendar.

That case involved a J.W. Truck Sales employee who had been cited for driving a company vehicle without proper registration.

Dacula City Marshal Steve Cline initiated a traffic stop on the vehicle after noticing the vehicle did not have a tag displayed. Due to the fact the vehicle was not registered in Georgia, Marshal Cline was unable to verify registration or insurance status through the state database. As a result, the employee was cited with a violation of Georgia law 40-2-20 which pertains to motor vehicle registration.

The employee said a dealer tag is normally placed on company vehicles before use, but admitted to Dacula Municipal Court Judge Bill Brodgon there was no tag on the vehicle the day he was stopped.

After entering a guilty plea, the man was fined $84.

The City of Dacula Municipal Court is held on the third Tuesday of each month at Dacula City Hall. Court begins at 5 p.m.
