Types of Traffic Offenses

Traffic offenses in Colorado are categorized primarily into infractions and misdemeanors, with each type carrying different potential consequences.

Infractions

Generally considered minor violations, these offenses usually result in fines but do not carry the risk of jail time. Common infractions include:

  • Speeding: Exceeding the posted speed limit.
  • Failure to yield: Not giving way to other vehicles or pedestrians.
  • Running a red light: Ignoring traffic signals.
  • Driving without a valid license: Operating a vehicle without a proper license or with an expired one.

Misdemeanors

More serious than infractions, misdemeanors can lead to penalties including fines, community service, and even jail time. Examples include:

  • Driving under the influence (DUI): Operating a vehicle while impaired by alcohol or drugs.
  • Reckless driving: Driving in a manner that shows a willful disregard for safety.
  • Hit and run: Leaving the scene of an accident without providing contact information or assisting the injured.

Consequences of Traffic Offenses

The penalties for traffic offenses in Colorado can be severe and may include:

  • Fines: Minor infractions typically result in monetary penalties that can accumulate quickly if you have multiple violations.
  • Points on your driving record: Colorado uses a points system where various offenses accrue points. Accumulating too many points can lead to license suspension.
  • License suspension or revocation: Serious offenses, particularly DUI, can result in losing your driving privileges for an extended period.
  • Increased insurance premiums: Traffic violations can lead to higher insurance rates, impacting your financial situation.
  • Criminal charges: Misdemeanor offenses can result in a criminal record, which can affect employment opportunities and other aspects of life.

How to Fight Your Traffic Ticket in Colorado

There are a variety of ways to fight a traffic ticket in Colorado. The best way to approach your situation will depend on the type of ticket you have received, the circumstances surrounding your ticket, and the specific details of your case.

Some of the ways you can fight your traffic ticket include:

  • Pleading not guilty
  • Requesting a court date
  • Submitting evidence
  • Providing testimony
  • Using an experienced Greeley traffic ticket lawyer

If you plead guilty to your ticket, you may be agreeing to pay more than just the fine listed on your ticket. You may also be agreeing to pay fines, court costs, and additional fees, as well as the possibility of receiving points on your driver's license and having your license suspended.

      "Incredibly easy to understand and trust."
      I worked with Nicholas Ohmann on a consultation, and he did an excellent job looking at my situation from all angles, and provided a few possible courses of action. No BS, no pushing, and incredibly easy to understand and trust. Depending on how my case unfolds, he's the first one I'm calling if I need further representation. Highly recommend!

      "I highly recommend Brian Klein at Peek Goldstone"
      Having received poor advice from a different law office and attorney, I was feeling distressed due to the criminal charges made against me. Seeing an ad for Peek Goldstone in my local paper, I gave them a call. Right from the initial consultation I knew I had found the right person for the job! Brian Klein treated me with respect and was nothing short of brilliant in his ability to leave no stone unturned in order to represent me in the best possible light. Will you have to pay for his services? Yes. Will it be worth it? Yes! I highly recommend Brian Klein at Peek Goldstone for your criminal case.

      "Went above and beyond to get my case dismissed."
      I was lucky and fortunate enough to have Brian Klein represent me in my legal case he went above and beyond to get my case dismissed from the daily phone calls to make sure I was doing okay to the endless hours of work he did to make sure I was taken care of ….. I highly recommend Brian.

      "Amanda Peek and Scott Goldstone are the absolute best in Colorado!!!!"
      Amanda Peek and Scott Goldstone are the absolute best in Colorado!!!! I could not ask for better attorneys. Thank you everyone on the Peek Goldstone team for all of the hard work you do. You all are awesome! Mr. Scott Goldstone has been my attorney since 2015. During the storms I have had to go through in order to have a relationship with my son, Scott has flawlessly guided and advised me through it all. I had the chance to work with Amanda as well, and she is just as wonderful as Scott. I would not be where I am at today with my son if it wasn't for Scott and Amanda. Thank you both so much for everything you have done and are continuing to do for my son and I. I am very grateful to have the both of you in my life. A huge shout out to all of the paralegals and other staff members working for the law office of Peek Goldstone. Everytime I call the office, you are very professional and helpful! Anybody reading this review that is in need of a family lawyer, Scott and Amanda are the attorneys for you. The investment in their team is worth every penny.

      "The entire staff were professional and courteous."
      Ms. Petrilli handled some of my estate planning by drawing up a “Will” and “Power of Attorney” for me. She did an excellent job of explaining everything up front to me at the initial consultation and interview as to the cost and how the process would be handled. She was very fast and efficient getting the final documents to me. The entire staff were professional and courteous.
      - James
      "One of the best in the business."
      I have quite a bit of experience with legal representation, having been involved in family court for over 8 years as the petitioner in divorce and custody proceedings. I have personally had 4 different attorneys. Scott Goldstone is, by far, the best counsel I have ever had. He is aggressive when needed, thorough, he explains everything to you in ways you can comprehend, and above all he is caring and compassionate, Scott truly cares.
      - Rhiannon
      "she was awesome!"
      Laura was my attorney, and she was awesome! She was easy to work with, and was really patient with me, explaining everything I didn't understand. Which was pretty much everything. Got my case wrapped up quicker than I expected. That was great, cause time is money. I liked her so much I had her put my will together for me next. So my experience was very good. I will use them again if necessary. Good luck!
