Florida law includes a traffic violations point system that can quickly turn a handful of minor traffic offenses into a suspended or revoked driver's license.

Our attorneys represent clients in all traffic violation cases. The following is a list of Florida's traffic offenses and their corresponding penalty points:

• Leaving the scene of an accident, resulting in property damage of more than $50 (6 points)
• Speeding, resulting in an accident (6 points)
• Reckless driving (4 points)
• Moving violations resulting in an accident (4 points)
• Passing a stopped school bus (4 points)
• Driving during restricted hours (3 points)
• Speeding ticket (3-4 points)
• Moving violations (3 points)
• Curfew violations (3 points)
• Open container violations (3 points)
• Improper equipment or unsafe conditions violations (2 points)

Regardless of whether the alleged traffic offense occurs in Florida or in another state, you are subject to the same number of points upon conviction.

Even a simple speeding ticket will end up costing you more than the amount on the ticket. Your insurance rates may increase, you could face denial of insurance coverage, or your license may be suspended. Penalties for offenses such as racing can even cost you your license.

An accumulation of traffic violations points could result in a suspension of your driver's license. The penalty for receiving 12 points within a 12-month period is a 30-day suspension, 18 points within an 18-month period is a three month suspension, and if you receive 24 penalty points within 36 months, you could lose your license for one year.

Do not let your traffic citation become a license suspension. Let us put our knowledge to work for you. Act quickly. For a free initial consultation with an aggressive attorney, contact Damore, Delgado, Romanik & Rawlins PLC today.
