Albany Traffic Attorney
Charged With Speeding or Reckless Driving in New York?
If you have been charged with any traffic offense such as speeding or reckless driving in New York, you may be tempted to simply pay the fine and forget about it — or to go to court on your own and try to talk a judge into lowering the charges or the penalty. In fact, these strategies are seldom the best way to deal with a traffic violation.
For aggressive and experienced defense, consult with a New York traffic violation lawyer at the Law Office of Mark J. Sacco, PLLC, when you face any traffic violation difficulties:
- Driving with a suspended license
- Speeding
- Aggravated unlicensed operation
- Driving without insurance
- Reckless driving

More Than a Fine
The cost of your traffic ticket is not the worst part of the speeding or reckless driving citation. Paying the fine means pleading guilty. People may be misled by the frequency with which friends or family members have received speeding tickets or other traffic violation citations — leading to desensitization of how much trouble it may cause over time. Through the "point system," the state of New York keeps track of traffic violations and penalizes drivers who rack up too many points in a short period of time.
Compounded Trouble Over Time
In other words, today's first offense may lead to more severe penalties on a second or third offense down the road. Furthermore, your insurance company may penalize you with higher premiums. Protect your good driving record, your affordable auto insurance rates and even your ability to retain your driving privileges. Talk to a traffic violation defense attorney to get an idea of the kinds of positive outcomes that may be possible.
