Maryland Traffic Offenses

Traffic Violations are divided into 2 categories in the State of Maryland. The first category is non-incarcerable offenses meaning they are not punishable by a jail sentence. Speeding violations are an example of a non-incarcerable offense. On the flip side is an incarcerable offense and these can result in jail time.

Legal Representation For All Types of Traffic Offenses

You are required to appear in court if you are charged or accused of a serious traffic offense. This is true even in the event you are going to plead guilty. Failing to appear may result in a warrant for your arrest. Consequences regarding major traffic offenses may include being sentenced to jail, fines and restricted driving privileges. In addition your insurance carrier may use a traffic violation conviction as as justification for increasing your premiums or canceling your policy. The Law office of Chris Marts has extensive experience handling all types of major traffic offenses.

The State of Maryland uses a point system when monitoring traffic violations, even minor offenses. If the offense is minor and could not result in jail time you can pay the assessed fine and not show up to court. It is also the same as admitting you are guilty of the offense. It is also important to bear in mind that ignoring a violation totally could result in a suspension of your license. If you are caught driving while your license is suspended that is punishable by jail, additional fines and points.
