Many people forget that driving is a privilege not a right.
The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) uses a point system to determine the impact that traffic violations have on driver's licenses and whether they will suspend or revoke that privilege. If you are threatened by an excessive point accumulation, your driving privileges may be in jeopardy. An experienced defense can save you the loss of your license, and thousands of dollars in lost productivity related to employment because of an inability to drive.
State College School Bus Violations Attorney
Some people dismiss the importance of some types of traffic tickets such as a citation for failure to stop for a school bus. They are very surprised to learn that all moving violations add points to your driving record. In addition, mandatory suspensions of your driving privileges may result in up to a six-month suspension for overtaking, passing or failing to stop for a school bus. Additionally, most people overlook the consequences of such moving violations to insurance coverage or even the cost of insurance if they are launched into a high-risk category.
Pleading guilty to a traffic ticket may increase your insurance premiums and could elevate the consequences of future citations.
