Keeping You in the Driver's Seat
Many people dismiss traffic violations as insignificant headaches. However, traffic tickets and offenses can have serious consequences. They can add points on your driver's license, resulting in higher insurance rates and license revocation or suspension. If protecting your driving status is important to you, consult with a knowledgeable attorney to defend your interests.
At Terrence C. McAndrews, P.A., we have 19 years of experience defending people accused of traffic violations in Howard County and the surrounding communities. Whether you received one too many speeding tickets or have been charged with reckless driving, our legal team will work hard to minimize the impact of the accusation. Visit our office in Ellicott City, Maryland, to discuss your situation with a skilled lawyer.
Dealing With Payable Traffic Tickets
There are two types of traffic violations in Maryland: payable traffic tickets and serious traffic offenses. Payable traffic ticket offenses include:
- Speeding
- Running a stop sign
- Failing to stop at a red light
- Motor vehicle accident cases
These incidents can result in fines and points on your license. With enough points, your license can be suspended or revoked. Rather than simply mail in your fine, and thereby admitting your guilt, you can fight against the charge. Contact our office to learn your rights.
Skillfully Handling Serious Traffic Offenses
More serious traffic violations include:
- Driving with a suspended license
- Driving while uninsured
- Fleeing and eluding a vehicle
- Aggressive driving
- Reckless driving
- Speed contests
- Vehicular manslaughter
These serious violations can result in jail time and the loss of your driver's license. However, a reckless driving or other serious traffic offense charge does not necessarily mean you will end up behind bars or without driving privileges. You can fight the charge with the help of experienced legal counsel.
