Augusta County Reckless Driving REDUCED to No Points

Augusta County Reckless Driving REDUCED to No PointsOur traffic lawyers represented a client licensed to drive in Maryland who was accused of criminal misdemeanor reckless driving for driving too fast on the interstate. A criminal conviction would have likely destroyed our client’s career. We were successful with being able to convince the Court to find our client NOT GUILTY. Unfortunately, the Judge was unwilling to dismiss the entire case. However, we convinced the Court to reduce the matter to defective equipment – which is a minor no points non moving infraction.
