Navigating the Consequences of a 100+ MPH Speeding Conviction in Tulare County, CA
A speeding ticket exceeding 100 mph in Tulare County, CA, is a major traffic infraction with significant consequences. If you're facing such a charge, seeking legal representation is crucial.
Understanding the Consequences
A 100+ mph speeding conviction can result in:
Fines: A substantial fine, including a “base fine,” not to exceed $500. However, the surcharges, court costs, and assessments are imposed that will bring your total to between $859 and $2,137.
NOTS Points: The DMV will assess two NOTS points, which can remain on your record for seven years.
Increased Insurance Premiums: Insurance companies often raise rates for drivers with NOTS points, leading to higher costs. A speeding over 100 mph conviction will typically double or triple a driver’s premium.
Potential Suspension: The judge may impose a 30-day suspension of your driving privileges.
Why You Should Hire a Traffic Attorney
A traffic attorney can provide invaluable assistance in managing a 100+ mph speeding ticket.
They can:
Represent you in court: An attorney can argue your case and present evidence to mitigate the penalties.
Negotiate reduced penalties: They may be able to negotiate a lower speed that might allow Traffic Violator School attendance, which could keep your conviction confidential, lower your fine, or avoid a suspension.
Protect your driving record: An attorney can help you minimize the impact on your driving record and insurance rates.
Explain your options: They can provide guidance and advice on the best course of action.
