Traffic Violations We Defend in Birmingham 

A few of the most common criminal traffic violations we defend include:

  • Reckless driving: When a person operates a vehicle which is intentionally reckless and seems to have complete disregard for the law and for the safety of others on the road, it is considered reckless driving. Reckless driving is typically punished as a first-degree misdemeanor, unless other factors are involved.
  • Driving with a suspended license: When your license has been suspended, you are expected to refrain from driving. However, traffic violations which involve intentionally and knowingly driving with a suspended license (or one which was revoked) are taken very seriously.
  • Fleeing a law enforcement officer: Eluding an officer or fleeing from an officer can involve being charged with a first degree, second degree, or third-degree felony. This crime depends on whether the lights and sirens have been activated and how the defendant allegedly operated the vehicle during the chase, among other factors.
  • Leaving the scene of an accident: Leaving the scene of an accident is a very serious offense, especially if you caused the accident and if there were injuries involved. If the person who was allegedly hit in the accident dies, this crime could be considered a first-degree felony.

Commonly Asked Questions

What are the potential consequences of not addressing a traffic ticket in Birmingham?

Failing to address a traffic ticket can lead to increased fines, points on your driving record, and even a suspension of your driver's license. Accumulating too many points may result in higher insurance premiums or the loss of driving privileges.

Can I contest a traffic ticket in Birmingham, and how is that process handled?

Yes, you can contest a traffic ticket in Birmingham. This typically involves requesting a court date where you can present your case. It's advisable to have legal representation to navigate the court procedures effectively.

What types of traffic violations can lead to criminal charges in Alabama?

In Alabama, serious traffic violations such as reckless driving, driving under the influence (DUI), and fleeing from law enforcement can lead to criminal charges. These violations can result in severe penalties, including fines and imprisonment.

How can a traffic ticket attorney assist me beyond just contesting a ticket?

A traffic ticket attorney can provide guidance on how to minimize penalties, negotiate plea deals, and help you understand your rights and options. They can also assist in expunging certain violations from your record if eligible.

What should I do if I receive multiple traffic tickets?

If you receive multiple traffic tickets, it's crucial to address them promptly to avoid further legal complications. Consulting with an attorney can help you understand your situation and explore options for reducing penalties or contesting some of the tickets.

Are there any traffic violations that can be resolved without appearing in court?

Yes, some minor traffic violations can be resolved by paying the fine or attending a traffic school, which may help prevent points from being added to your driving record. However, more serious offenses typically require a court appearance.
