Experienced Fairfax Speeding Ticket Lawyer

Virginia traffic law has at least twenty sections pertaining to reckless driving. Actions considered to be criminally dangerous include passing illegally and a failure to yield. Perhaps the most commonly charged criminal traffic offense, however, is speed-related reckless driving. There are three types of reckless driving by speed:

  • Driving in excess of 20 mph above the posted limit
  • Driving in excess of 80 mph, regardless of the posted limit
  • Driving too fast for road conditions

If you are charged with reckless driving as a result of speed or the other reasons enumerated in the state code, you could be facing up to one year in jail, a $2,500 fine, and a six month suspension of your driver’s license. For your best chance of avoiding these consequences, it is wise to seek representation from a qualified Fairfax speeding ticket attorney.
