NYC Reckless Driving Law Firm Lebedin Kofman LLP Explains Reckless Speeding and Driving in a New Article
Mar 7, 2023
NYC reckless driving law firm Lebedin Kofman LLP (https://www.lebedinkofman.com/practice-areas/criminal-defense/vehicular-crimes/reckless-driving/) releases a new article explaining reckless speeding and driving in a new article. Criminal defense attorney Russ Kofman, one of the founders of the firm, mentions that a person may be charged with reckless driving if they are driving a motor vehicle and endanger or unreasonably get in the way of other motorists.
“Moving violations, such as speeding tickets or leaving the site of an accident causing property damage, can result in severe penalties. Points can be added to your license, which could increase your insurance costs. Your license may be suspended or revoked for exceeding 11 points, or three speeding offenses within the last 18 months,” the article from the NYC reckless driving law firm says.
Attorney Kofman adds that reckless driving is one of the most serious moving violations in New York. These types of offenses are treated as misdemeanors and are dealt with in criminal courts, not the Traffic Violations Bureau. A reckless driving conviction can lead to jail time and severe fines. A conviction for reckless driving can also lead to the suspension of a person’s driver’s license, increased insurance premiums, and added points to the driver’s record.
In the article, attorney Kofman says that “A reckless driving charge can have a huge impact on a person’s life and finances. Fines for a reckless driving charge can be expensive. Similar to speeding, reckless drivers may be subject to jail time especially if they end up being involved in an accident in New York. It is essential that you have an NYC reckless driving lawyer on your side if you are facing reckless driving charges. They will understand both the criminal justice system as well as traffic ticket violations.”
Lastly, attorney Kofman emphasizes the importance of having a skilled lawyer when a person is facing charges of reckless driving. An experienced lawyer may be able to help the defendant understand their rights and protect their freedom.
