Police Officers will often stop drivers for violations of the law which are not as serious as criminal traffic offenses, but which may result in the driver being assessed points, paying fines and costs, being required to attend driving school and/or suspending driving privileges. Receipt of 12 points within 12 months or 18 points within 18 months will result in a lengthy license suspension.

Examples of non-criminal traffic offenses include, but are not limited to, Unlawful Speed, Failure to Maintain a Single lane, Violation of Right of Way, Careless Driving, Expired Tag and Driving While License Suspended or Revoked Without Knowledge. Failure to correctly address these non criminal offenses may lead to increased insurance rates, loss of CDL and even a driver’s license suspension and if not resolved in a timely matter may result in criminal charges.

Every driver charged with a traffic infraction may elect to attend school or pay the ticket with the points assessed, but is also entitled to a hearing if requested in writing within 30 days of the offense. At the hearing, the police officer who issued the citation and any other drivers involved must appear for the citation to be proven. The hiring of The Law Office Of Andrew L. Cameron will increase the likelihood of prevailing at the hearing or minimizing the damage done to your driving record. Contact us today to find out how!
