Sussex County VA Suspended Driver’s License Case DISMISSED
Our Sussex County Traffic Attorneys represented a client charged with driving on a suspended driver’s license in violation of Va. Code 46.2-301. Our client had no idea that his driving privileges were suspended. He was not from the area and could not return for a trial. We prepared and argued the case in such a manner that the client did not have to return for trial. Our chief argument was that our client lacked the necessary knowledge to be in violation. The Judge dismissed the case.
Sussex VA Fail to Move Over/Yield Emergency Vehicle DISMISSED
Our Sussex County traffic lawyers represented a client charged with failing to yield to an emergency vehicle, more popular as the “Move Over Law,” violating Va. Code 46.2-861.1 for failing to make a lane change while traveling on the Interstate. First, our client had no idea that such a law existed, and second, he did not think he was in violation.

The Judge agreed with our position and dismissed the case.
