Central Pennsylvania Traffic Violations
Being cited for a traffic violation is about as close to 'trouble with the law' as most people will ever get. This is a good thing. However, even though traffic violations carry far fewer consequences than other 'criminal charges', the consequences they can have on your Drivers' License points, your insurance, your driving privileges, and your personal liability, make fighting for a reduction or dismissal of charges just as worthwhile.
Traffic Violations: To Pay or Not To Pay?
At Beinhaur & Curcillo, we advise clients and represent them in the municipal traffic courts of Dauphin County and the surrounding areas of Central Pennsylvania. Specific charges involved in our practice may include:
- DUI / DWI charges
- Open container violations
- Driving while suspended
- Reckless driving
- Speeding
- Driving without insurance
- Work-zone speeding
- Driving after revocation
The question to answer with any of these or other traffic violations is whether you should or should not pay the fine and accept the ticket. In almost all cases, we say no. Do not pay. The success rate for fighting traffic tickets and getting them reduced or dismissed is high. Because of this, consulting with a traffic lawyer before you consider just paying the fine is a smart choice.
And while an attorney may cost you more dollars in the short-term than pleading guilty would, the long-term costs of higher insurance and the potential loss of your driving privileges make hiring a traffic lawyer now a smart investment as well.
