Motoring Offences

Due to the nature of motor offences being highly variable, the law surrounding them is complex. There are a number of motoring offences one can commit, including but not limited to drink driving, texting while driving, speeding or reckless driving.

Motoring Offences

How can we help?

Each circumstance of each offence is likely to be unique, and the sentences can vary. 

Hannah Solicitors can provide you with legal assistance regardless of the complexities of your case. Many people who are charged with a motoring offence have never been charged with criminal offences before, and the distress and uncertainty can have a large affect on an individual.

We can talk you through each step of your case, as well as examining evidence and building your defence. Depending on the offence, punishment can range from a fine and three points on your licence to a prison sentence. 

If you have been charged with a driving offence before, your sentence is likely to be harsher, and can include maximum penalty and/or a disqualification from driving.

We will make you aware of every possible sentence you may face and how this will affect you.

Penalties

The penalty for each offence will differ depending on the individual’s circumstances, and there are some defences that can be applied to reduce the penalty or mitigate the liability.
