As a commercial driver, your livelihood depends on your ability to maintain a clean driving record. Traffic violations can jeopardize not only your career but also your financial stability. At Speed Ticket Defense, our experienced attorneys specialize in defending commercial drivers against various violations, including speeding, logbook infractions, and weight limit breaches. Let us help you keep your record clean and your career on track.
The Impact of Traffic Violations on Commercial Drivers
Commercial drivers face stricter regulations and harsher penalties for traffic violations compared to non-commercial drivers. A single violation can lead to:
- Increased Insurance Premiums: Traffic violations can cause your insurance premiums to skyrocket, impacting your bottom line.
- License Suspension or Revocation: Accumulating too many points on your driving record can result in the suspension or revocation of your commercial driver’s license (CDL).
- Job Loss: Many employers have strict policies regarding traffic violations, and repeated offenses can lead to termination.
- Legal Consequences: Serious violations can result in hefty fines or even jail time.
Common Violations Faced by Commercial Drivers
Speeding
Speeding is one of the most common violations among commercial drivers. Due to the size and weight of commercial vehicles, speeding can be particularly dangerous and result in severe penalties. Our attorneys are skilled in challenging speeding tickets, often finding technicalities or errors in the citation process that can lead to dismissal or reduction of charges.
Logbook Infractions
Commercial drivers are required to maintain accurate logbooks to ensure compliance with hours-of-service regulations. Logbook infractions, whether intentional or accidental, can lead to significant fines and points on your record. Our team understands the complexities of logbook regulations and can provide a strong defense to protect your record.
Weight Limit Breaches
Exceeding weight limits is a serious offense that can result in fines and points on your CDL. It’s crucial to ensure your vehicle complies with weight regulations to avoid penalties. If you’ve been cited for a weight limit breach, our attorneys can help you contest the violation and potentially reduce or eliminate the penalties.
