King George County VA Traffic Reckless Driving DISMISSED

King George County VA Traffic Reckless Driving DISMISSEDOur King George VA reckless driving attorneys represented a client charged with reckless driving for driving too fast. In this case, we developed defenses to the police RADAR device used to calculate speed. A plea of not guilty was entered. We were able to effectively cross examine the state trooper who was operating RADAR in King George County and made the reckless driving allegation. We exposed the fact that the RADAR used in this particular case was not tested for accuracy with properly calibrated tuning forks, which is required by Va. Code 46.2-882. The Court granted our motion to dismiss the case.

King George Reckless Driving Lawyers 80+ mph NOT GUILTY

King George Reckless Driving Lawyers 80+ mph NOT GUILTYOur reckless driving lawyer in King George County Virginia defended a student who was charged with Reckless Driving for driving 80 miles per hour on Route 301. Students are often cited with reckless driving because many drive through King George on the way to University of Mary Washington Dahlgren campus and other schools. Many families also use Route 301 as an alternate to Interstate 95. We were able to present compelling evidence and arguments to persuade the King George Court to take the case under advisement and to eventually find our client NOT GUILTY of the allegation.

Reckless Driving Lawyers King George VA Client Review

While returning to NJ from SC, my wife was cited for doing 81 in a 70 in King George County VA while we actually were going nowhere near 81 mph. we were not overly confident in our ability to fight the charge from such a long distance. We contacted Riley & Wells provided the details and they were able to help us lower the charge to a non moving violation, which was a huge help. We had several VA plates in front of us moving faster and several behind and still the officer pulled us out of the group (NJ plates). Something needs to be done about the dishonest way that the State of VA rakes in 100+ million a year in fines on the backs of out of state motorists. Thanks to Riley & Wells at least we have a fighting chance!
