People sometimes make mistakes. It happens even to the best of us. But it’s important to know that traffic violations can add points to your driving record. This can increase your auto insurance rates and cause your driving license to be suspended. Criminal charges can actually lead to more serious consequences – including fines, jail time, and a permanent criminal record. Many cases can be resolved best through plea bargaining and negotiation. However, there are situations in which going to trial for certain cases is the best option.
