Chicago Aggravated Speeding Attorneys
Lawyers for Aggravated Speeding Defense in Cook County
For many people, traffic tickets may seem like an unavoidable hazard of driving. A driver gets pulled over, receives a citation, pays the associated fine, and quickly forgets about the offense. While a traffic ticket should never be treated lightly, there are some cases in which you may find yourself facing criminal charges as the result of a traffic stop. At Luisi Legal Group, we understand the challenges associated with charges of aggravated speeding and how a guilty plea or conviction could affect your life.
Misdemeanor Defense Lawyers Serving Chicago
Under Illinois law, aggravated speeding is more than a traffic violation. It is a criminal offense that carries potentially very serious penalties. A driver may be charged with aggravated speeding if he or she is found to be driving 26 miles per hour (mph) or more above the posted speed limit. The seriousness of the charge depends on exactly how fast offender is driving:
- A driver traveling 26 to 34 miles per hour over the posted speed limit may be charged as a Class B Misdemeanor, which carries up to six months in jail and up to $1,500 in fines; and
- A driver traveling 35 miles per hour or more over the posted speed limit may be charged as a Class A Misdemeanor, carrying up to one year in jail and up to $2,500 in fines.
