CVC 22349 Speeding Tickets in California
Learn what a CVC 22349 speeding ticket means, how it differs from the basic speed law, and how California drivers can contest it by written declaration.
CVC 22349 is a California maximum speed law section. Unlike CVC 22350, which focuses on reasonable speed for conditions, CVC 22349 generally alleges that the driver exceeded a maximum lawful speed. The response usually focuses on measurement, identification, location, signage, and case-specific facts.
- CVC 22349 is usually about exceeding a maximum speed, not just whether conditions were safe.
- Measurement method and officer observations can be important.
- A written declaration should be tailored to the subsection and facts on the ticket.
What CVC 22349 usually alleges
CVC 22349 tickets commonly involve maximum speed allegations, including highway and two-lane road speed limits. The citation should identify the specific code section or subsection and the alleged speed.
Because the charge is more number-focused than CVC 22350, the declaration often needs to address how speed was measured, where the vehicle was observed, and whether the alleged facts match the road and conditions.
Facts that can matter
Relevant details can include radar or lidar use, pacing, calibration issues, officer vantage point, traffic density, vehicle identification, signage, road type, and whether the ticket accurately states the location and alleged limit.
A driver does not need a courtroom speech. The written declaration should make a clean factual record and explain the evidence in an organized way.

A CVC 22349 conviction may create a point and insurance exposure. A written declaration gives eligible drivers a way to contest the ticket without an initial court appearance.
