Serious Driving Offense Facts

A serious driving offense can be charged as a misdemeanor or felony, depending on the circumstances and on whether previous similar convictions exist. The punishments can include large fines and jail or prison time and suspension of your driver's license. In the case of drag racing, or possession of drugs or contraband, the State of California may also take away your car. A simple traffic stop can end up in felony or misdemeanor charges if drugs, loaded or concealed weapons, open cans of beer, or other forbidden items are found in the car or truck. For all of these charges, alternative sentences may be given in certain cases. Because the potential penalties are severe, it is important to obtain a skilled criminal defense attorney as soon as possible to obtain the best results under the particular facts and law of your case. Your attorney's knowledge of defenses, sentencing guidelines, and alternative sentencing options will be vital to obtaining the best outcome under the law and facts of your case.
