Stopped for Speeding While Driving Through Schenectady County?
Regardless of whether you’ve been cited for speeding, driving without a license, reckless driving or another traffic violation in Schenectady County, it is important to talk to a traffic defense attorney before you pay the fine.
Simply paying a traffic fine is an admission of guilt, and by adding a conviction for an NY traffic violation to your record, you face the risk of:
- Increased insurance rates
- Being assessed a New York driver responsibility assessment for three years — upon accumulating at least six points on your driver’s license in 18 months
- Your driver’s license being suspended or later revoked if you receive another traffic violation
