TRAFFIC TICKETS | TRAFFIC WARRANTS | OCCUPATIONAL DRIVERS LICENSE | CLASS C VIOLATIONS
In Central Texas, driving is a part of daily life, and the more we drive, the higher the probability of getting a traffic ticket. The reasons for being cited for a traffic violation are increasing all the time and extending to both how we operate our vehicles and how we behave inside them. Whether you’ve been ticketed for driving over the speed limit, reckless driving or texting or talking while driving, there are many advantages to hiring an experienced Austin traffic lawyer to defend your case.
Your first thought may be to admit guilt and pay the fine to get it over with. However, there are lasting consequences to having violations on your driving record. Each ticket means more points on your drivers license. With enough points, your driving privilege can be suspended until the points are restored. Not only can your drivers license will be suspended but, also the cost of your car insurance may increase with each traffic ticket and stay increased for five years. At this point, the option is to pay for expensive drivers education courses that can take up to a day to complete, costing you time and money.
