Did you receive a traffic ticket that you feel you do not deserve?  Are you wondering whether it is worth your time to go to court and just pay the fine?  The decisions that you make will have consequences beyond the payment of the traffic ticket.

 

If you are concerned about your driving record and your insurance rates going up, think over your decision carefully.  The wrong choice could stay with you for years.  While you probably won’t face jail for most types of traffic violations, the consequences can be painful and expensive.  Examples include:

 

·     You can lose your driver’s license temporarily or permanently depending on the offense

·     Your automobile insurance rates will definitely increase

·     You will most likely have to pay a fine in addition to attending traffic school

·     It will impact your job

·     You could end up with a criminal record for life

 

When you are facing a California criminal charge, no matter the severity, your freedom is on the line.  Contact an experienced Riverside Criminal Law attorney who will listen to your story and plan an aggressive defense strategy on your behalf.

Driving in California is not a right – it is a privilege.  Therefore, if you have gotten certain infractions behind the wheel, it is most probable that your driver’s license will be taken away or suspended for a long period of time.

California’s ‘Basic Speed Law’ requires that drivers go no faster than is safe, given the surroundings and conditions.  The speed limit on most freeways is 65 mph.  On streets, it varies so it is best to look for posted signs.  Speeding tickets is one of the most frequently given traffic violations in California.

 

Getting a speeding ticket can be devastating especially when the fine is high, you could lose your license and your insurance rates can skyrocket or you can lose your insurance altogether.

 

Before you decide to pay your ticket or fight it in court, find out what the consequences are.

 

Paying a ticket may be easier and quicker than fighting it, but think about the long-term effects it will have on your insurance rates.

 

If you have received a speeding ticket in Palm Springs or any part of Riverside County, you would be wise to contact an experienced Riverside Criminal Law attorney who will guide you through the process and help you avoid the risk of getting your insurance rates increased or cancelled completely.
