Woodbridge Reckless Driving Lawyer

Many of us have been or will at some point be pulled over by police while driving our cars. We get a traffic ticket for a minor offense, and drive onwards. The only damage done is the annoyance of a warning, or perhaps a small fine.

But sometimes, law enforcement considers our error more serious. In these cases, a charge of reckless driving may be issued. Criminal prosecution is the outcome of such charges. If you find yourself charged with a misdemeanor traffic violation, a Woodbridge reckless driving lawyer might be able to help you.

You may be wondering exactly what you did that constitutes reckless driving. The offense is not a simple, singular act, but can be a variety of things like:

• Aggressive driving (such as weaving in and out of traffic)
• Passing a stopped school bus
• Passing a vehicle on a curve
• Violations of excessive speed (20 mph or more than the posted limit)
• Failure to signal
• Failure to yield to an emergency vehicle
• Drag racing

Because reckless driving is a criminal offense in Virginia, a conviction can have serious consequences. You can be fined hundreds of dollars – if not thousands – of dollars. You can lose your license. You can even be sentenced to prison time. Don’t accept these consequences blindly – you may be able to protect yourself from their impact.
