Common Traffic Violations in Michigan
Michigan enforces strict rules for drivers, with violations potentially resulting in points on your driving record and fines. Some common offenses include:
- Speeding: Exceeding the posted speed limit or driving too fast for conditions.
- Reckless Driving: Operating a vehicle in a way that willfully disregards the safety of others.
- Running Red Lights or Stop Signs: Disobeying traffic control devices can lead to fines and points on your license.
- Careless Driving: Unlike reckless driving, this charge applies when your driving unintentionally endangers others.
- Driving with a Suspended or Revoked License: Driving while your license is not valid is a serious offense with possible jail time.
- Texting While Driving: Michigan has laws against texting or using a mobile device while driving unless in hands-free mode.
Potential Consequences of Traffic Violations
Traffic offenses can have a range of consequences that impact your personal and professional life. Potential penalties include:
- Fines and Court Costs: Depending on the violation, you may face significant financial penalties.
- Points on Your License: Points can lead to increased insurance rates and, if they accumulate, suspension of your license.
- Increased Insurance Premiums: Traffic convictions often result in higher premiums from insurance providers.
- License Suspension or Revocation: Serious violations or repeated offenses can result in loss of driving privileges.
An experienced lawyer can challenge the charges against you, work to reduce penalties, and potentially eliminate points from your driving record.
