New Speeding Laws Get Alot Tougher

 Posted on May 18, 2012 in Uncategorized

Currently, speeding 40 mph or more over the limit results in a conviction and the loss of your driver's license.  In other words, you cannot receive Court Supervision for that type of offense.   That type of speeding charge can be devastating to your driving privileges.

Now, new legislation is pending that would  prohibit getting court supervision for speeding more that 30 mph over the limit.  In some areas, such as an urban (residential), the benchmark is lowered to 25 mph over the limit.

What does this mean to Illinois Motorists?   Basically , their opportunity to keep these types of speeding tickets off their records evaporates, which will cause a much larger segment of our driving population to lose their driver's licenses because of suspension and revocations.  Also, their insurance rates will increase significantly.

The Law offices of Stephen Brundage works on these types of ticket to avoid the consequences contemplated by our legislature.  Hiring an experienced traffic lawyer for these types of violations in Dupage, Kane, Cook and surrounding counties is big decision.  Stephen Brundage concentrates in these types of traffic and criminal problems and can help.   Contact Stephen Brundage at 630-260-9647 for all your criminal and traffic needs.
