Get Out of a Speeding Ticket in Silver Spring
You do not realize how much freedom a driver's license provides until you cannot jump in the car to run errands or have to arrange rides to go places. A revoked or suspended license hampers your lifestyle. And a number of speeding violations can result in the loss of your license. The Law Office of Harry A. Suissa, P.C. has been helping clients in Maryland and Washington, D.C. deal with speeding ticket violations for more than 30 years.
Most people just pay the speeding ticket, which is tantamount to saying you are guilty. A small percentage of drivers actually contest speeding tickets. Of those that do, many have their cases dismissed or receive reduced charges.
Reasons for contesting a speeding ticket in Silver Spring
Seeking legal advice or representation for traffic violations can help you avoid serious consequences later down the road. One speeding ticket may not seem like much now. However, receiving another citation can lead to license suspension or revocation, additional points on your license, and higher insurance premiums.
The University of Maryland School of Medicine conducted a research study of 3.7 million licensed drivers which showed that ticketing did not reduce a driver's likelihood of getting another speeding ticket. Furthermore, the study showed that drivers receiving a ticket were at twice the risk of receiving another one during the follow-up period.
If you got a speeding ticket, these odds do not bode well for your future. The time to fight a speeding ticket in Silver Spring may very well be when you get the first ticket.
According to the National Motorist Association, more than half of drivers who fight traffic tickets win. Even when their case is not dismissed, the majority of drivers either have charges reduced or can plea bargain for lesser charges.
