CDL Drivers

Out of State Drivers
What happens in Georgia does not stay in Georgia. Georgia likely shares your conviction information with other states, such as with Florida, South Carolina and North Carolina. Take extra care when deciding to just pay a ticket and move on, it could dramatically affect your current state's license, even resulting in a suspension.
Aggressive/Reckless Drivers
Receiving an aggressive or reckless driving citation is a serious misdemeanor offense. If your driving record and ability to drive is important to you, then hiring a skilled defense attorney would be in your best interest. This offense, if convicted, could ultimately result in jail time and serious fines. As defined by Georgia law, a reckless driver is someone who was driving their vehicle with disregard for the safety of others and may have caused a collision due to their recklessness.
Speeding/Speeding in Work/School Zone
In a work or school zone, a driver cited for speeding can anticipate a fine to be double of what your average speeding ticket penalty would be.
Driving on Suspended License
A citation for driving on a suspended license is charged as a misdemeanor in the State of Georgia. A license suspension can occur for a number of reasons, not knowing your license is suspended is not a defense to this citation. A fine of $500 to $1,000 and 2 days in jail is likely.
