Traffic Offenses

Orlando Traffic Violation Lawyer

Traffic violations can have consequences that are both immediate and long-term. Beyond the financial impact of fines and court costs, receiving a speeding ticket can lead to increased auto insurance premiums or cancellations. Furthermore,  accumulating too many points on your driver’s license can ultimately lead to the suspension or revocation of the license. 

There are more ways to contest traffic violations than many people realize. Before you plead out, call our office. 

Our traffic violations lawyer in Orlando serves clients throughout Orange County and Polk County. Call (321) 475-0928 or contact us online today for a free consultation.

Possible Defenses Against Traffic Violations

The defense strategy for each case will depend on the unique circumstances of your situation. Some of the general places to begin include these: 

  • Lack of probable cause: Demonstrating that law enforcement had no valid reason to pull you over allows us to exclude the evidence obtained from the stop. That alone may be enough to get the dismissal of your case. 
  • Errors on the ticket: Inaccuracies in the vehicle information or violation details can significantly weaken the prosecution’s case. 
  • Challenging the radar gun: Law enforcement is obligated to keep radar guns calibrated and properly maintained, and they must document that compliance. If they can’t produce evidence of proper maintenance, the case against you can be weakened. 
  • Necessity: The necessity defense can be used when your actions were taken to prevent harm or otherwise address an emergency situation. 

Other Traffic Offenses

While speeding is the most common traffic violation, there are others that carry serious penalties if convicted. We fight for the rights of people charged with offenses like these: 

Racing

Racing on public roads is a serious traffic offense that involves competing with another vehicle in speed contests. Defending against racing charges often calls for demonstrating that the accused was not engaged in a coordinated race.

Reckless Driving

Reckless driving is characterized by a willful disregard for the safety of others on the road, often involving excessive speed, aggressive maneuvers, or other dangerous behaviors. Defenses against reckless driving charges may include proving that the driving behavior was not intentional or that external factors contributed to the actions deemed reckless. 

Leaving the Scene of an Accident

Also known as a hit-and-run, leaving the scene of an accident occurs when a driver fails to stop after being involved in a collision. Possible defenses against this offense may involve proving that the driver was unaware of the accident or demonstrating valid reasons for leaving the scene, such as seeking immediate medical attention or other safety concerns. 

Driving With a Suspended License

Defenses against this offense may include demonstrating that the driver was not aware of the license suspension or had valid reason to believe a suspended license had been reinstated.
