Does license suspension always accompany street racing charges?

Yes,  you can lose your license for a year if you plead to a racing charge.   An experienced racing and reckless driving lawyer can advise you on all your rights, legal options and potential consequences and work to protect your ability to drive.

Can I be arrested for passing, speeding, starting fast, or squealing tires?

Unfortunately yes, while many residents or tourists driving around engaging in these actions are not racing, may still be subject to an arrest for racing. An officer, in his subjective opinion, can make an arrest if any of these actions are suspected of being tied to an act of racing, but if the prosecution cannot demonstrate that link effectively in court, you may be able to avoid the charge altogether.

Should I admit to guilt and pay the fine or fight a Racing or Reckless violation charge without a lawyer?

You should keep in mind that paying a fine and entering a plea of guilty or no contest can subject you to a number of consequences, such as loss of driver’s license, driving record point accrual, jail time, and additional fines. The Orlando Traffic Violation Lawyers can help you understand all your options before you make a decision which could negatively impact your future.
