Why Select Our Florida Legal Services? 

The early involvement of a skilled attorney can profoundly impact the resolution of your legal issues. Amy Pietrowski is dedicated to protecting your rights and securing the best possible outcomes in every case we handle.

Florida Traffic Violations and License Consequences

Florida uses a point-based driver’s license system, and accumulating points can quickly lead to license suspension. Even a single violation may affect your insurance rates and driving privileges.

Common Florida traffic violations include:

  • Speeding tickets

  • Reckless driving

  • Careless driving

  • Running red lights or stop signs

  • Driving with a suspended or revoked license

  • Failure to maintain insurance

  • Improper lane changes and unsafe driving

Some traffic violations may also carry criminal penalties, depending on the charge.

Florida Driver’s License
Points System

Traffic convictions in Florida often result in points added to your driving record. Accumulating too many points within a specific timeframe can lead to license suspension.

In some cases, defending a traffic ticket may help:

• Avoid points on your license

• Prevent license suspension

• Reduce insurance increases

• Protect your driving record

Each case depends on the type of violation and your driving history.

Traffic Violations for Out-of-State Drivers

If you received a traffic ticket while visiting Florida, the citation may still affect your home-state license. Florida shares driving record information with other states, meaning penalties can extend beyond Florida.

Attorney Amy Pietrowski assists out-of-state drivers by handling Florida traffic cases efficiently and working to minimize travel and disruption.

Traffic Violations and Commercial Drivers

Traffic violations can be especially serious for commercial drivers. Even non-CDL traffic tickets may affect a CDL holder’s driving record and employment.

If you hold a commercial driver’s license, it’s important to understand how traffic violations may impact your CDL status.
