Motor Vehicle Offenses

When a person violates state mandated driving laws, he/she is committing a motor vehicle offense.  Most motor vehicle offenses are categorized as infractions or misdemeanors, but that does not mean that these offenses should be taken lightly.  All motor vehicle offenses should be regarded as serious due to the legal penalties and consequences that are involved.   

In the state of Massachusetts, commonly committed motor vehicle offenses include, but are not limited to:  speeding, reckless driving, DWI, DUI, OUI, driving without insurance, operating with a suspended driver’s license, unpaid traffic tickets, unpaid vehicle fines, hit and run, and leaving the scene of an accident.

Motor Vehicle Offense Penalties
In most cases, motor vehicle offenses result in fines or driver’s license penalties.  However, in cases involving serious motor vehicle offenses, a conviction can result in far more severe legal consequences, such as:  jail time, hefty fines, community service, probation, and driver’s license suspension.  Additionally, charges and sentencing can be enhanced if the person has been convicted of prior motor vehicle offenses, if the person caused bodily harm to another person, or if the person caused extensive property damage.
