What Can A Lawyer Do About A Traffic Ticket?

This is just a sampling of the many different reasons you may be issued a traffic ticket in North Carolina.

Of course, some traffic violations are more serious than others. The penalties for the violations listed above range from fines to license suspension or revocation to possible jail time. Consequences can also vary depending on your past driving record, or on how serious the violation was.

For example, speeding can be an infraction, with a relatively small fine. If you’re cited for speeding in a work zone, the fine is significantly higher. And, if you’re cited for driving 15 miles per hour or more over the speed limit, speeding may be a misdemeanor. In some situations, speeding may even constitute reckless driving.

When Should You Hire a North Carolina Traffic Citation Lawyer?

Often, people who receive traffic tickets simply pay the fine and move on. This pleads you guilty, or responsible, to the offense. You should never just pay a ticket, even if an officer tells you so.

It’s very important that you know your driving history, the number of points currently on your driving record, and the possible consequences of an admission or conviction before you decide to simply pay a ticket. The interplay among past convictions, driver’s license status, and the current citation can be complicated. So, an experienced Fayetteville traffic lawyer is the best source of guidance about how to proceed.
