Speeding

Texting

Texting while driving is one of the most dangerous things you can do on the road.  This form of distracted driving could cause an accident resulting in injury or death. Under New York State law, texting or talking on a mobile device while driving is illegal. If you plead guilty, significant points will be added to your license and you could end up paying fines up to $200 for your first offense.help you with an evaluation, give you an estimate of the fees to file, and guide you through the filing process.

Uninsured Motorist

In New York State, driving while uninsured is illegal—and comes with big penalties. Your license could be revoked for up to one year, and you will be heavily fined. This is a serious charge, and having a traffic attorney on your side is a must to help you get the best possible outcome. With the help of an attorney, penalties could be reduced.

Leaving the scene of an accident

If you are involved in an accident, New York State law requires you to stay on the scene, sharing your license and insurance information with the other driver. If you leave the scene, this could result in serious criminal charges, especially if injury or death are involved.

Failure to comply

If you have been charged with violating a traffic law, but fail to show up to court to handle the traffic summons, your license may be suspended indefinitely. Depending on your situation, a traffic attorney can help, reducing the amount of time your license is suspended.

Failure to obey traffic control device

This charge is often given out if you have been stopped for speeding, and can refer to the speed limit sign. For example, by going over the posted legal speed limit, you are technically failing to obey this device. A device can also refer to traffic signals (like a red light), warning signs, and pavement markings.

Improper lane change

If you are found guilty of this charge in New York State, the result is 3 points on your license. This can happen if you try to change lanes without a clear path, and are putting other drivers at risk. A traffic attorney can help you fight this ticket, and depending on the circumstances, fines or the points on your license could be reduced. Contact Nave Law to learn how we can help!

Improper cell phone use

According to New York State law, it is illegal to be holding your cell phone to text or call while driving. If you are using your device to call, it has to be in a hands-free manner, with the phone attached to the surface of your vehicle so both of your hands are free for driving. If you are using your cell phone illegally, you are at risk for receiving a ticket which can result in fines as well as points on your license. If you feel you have been unfairly charged, Nave Law can help!

unsafe passing

If your passing is interfering with the safety of another vehicle and its driver, this is against the law in New York State. This can include “blind” passing, or passing on the right-hand side.

tailgating

In New York State, you can be ticketed for aggressive driving, which includes tailgating. A ticket for this will result in 4 points on your license, and a fine of up to $200. This could also result in raised car insurance rates. These are steep consequences. If you’ve received a ticket for tailgating, a strong defense is a must. A Syracuse traffic ticket lawyer from Nave Law can help!

failure to yield

A ticket for this traffic violation is typically given out following a car accident where one driver failed to yield to another, causing a collision. Many outside factors can affect how a car accident occurred. It’s important to have a traffic lawyer on your side to examine the accident from every angle. It may be possible for penalties to be reduced, or for the ticket to be dismissed.

failure to stop

This type of ticket can be issued if you do not bring your vehicle to a complete stop at a stop sign, red traffic light, or any other traffic sign or signal that implies a stop is necessary.

reckless driving

Sometimes referred to as careless or dangerous driving, reckless driving is a serious offense, and is considered a misdemeanor in New York State. Even a first offense can include up to 30 days in jail, and will place 5 points on your license. If you have been charged with reckless driving, you need an experienced attorney on your side.
