Polk County Traffic Offense Attorney

Traffic Citation Defense

Traffic offenses can result in various penalties depending on the seriousness of the violation. Some violations, such as reckless driving, racing and driving with a suspended license can even result in misdemeanor criminal charges. If you have received a traffic ticket, simply paying the fine may seem like the easiest way to resolve the matter. Paying a ticket is an admission that you are guilty of the offense, which can lead to DMV points added to your driving record and an increase in insurance rates. If you accrue too many points on your DMV record, your license will automatically be suspended. Traffic offenses that will result in driving record points include:

• Speeding that results in an accident (6 points)
• Moving violations that cause an accident (4 points)
• Driving more than 15 mph above the posted limit (4 points)
• Passing a stopped school bus (4 points)

Your license can also be suspended by failing to pay a ticket. Before paying the fine for a traffic ticket, contact a Polk County criminal defense attorney to discuss your case. You may find that you stand a good chance of a reduction in penalties or case dismissal if you fight the charges with the help of a skilled criminal defense lawyer.
