Our Criminal Defense Team Has Handled Various Traffic Crimes Cases

Our team at McKenzie Law Firm, P.C., helps people fight against unlawful charges or allegations. We handle traffic crime cases of all types, including those that involve:

• Driving under the influence (DUI)
• Driving without a driver’s license or vehicle registration

• Leaving the scene of an accident (hit-and-run)
• Speeding

Pennsylvania’s point system assigns points to other traffic offenses not listed here, which you can find under 75 Pa. C.S.A. §1535.

In some cases, a minor traffic violation might escalate to a higher offense if it led to a severe injury, death, or property damage in an automobile accident. We can review your case to determine whether your charges are lawful and whether your actions led to the accident you are accused of causing.

We Can Strategize Your Defense Against the Charges You’re Facing

We are not afraid to take on difficult cases. You can always receive a free case evaluation with one of our team members, who can explain how we might begin strategizing your defense.

Or strategy will depend on the charges you’re facing, your driving history, and other circumstances. When you become our client, we will investigate various aspects of your case to determine which strategic route to take, such as:

• Whether this is your first traffic offense or first offense of this type
• Whether you showed signs of committing a traffic offense based on evidence
• Whether the police officer had probable cause or reasonable suspicion to arrest you

We Will Review Evidence to Analyze the Nature of Your Arrest

Our team can access resources to retrieve evidence of your traffic stop and arrest. Doing so allows us to analyze whether the police officer displayed proper conduct.

We may request and review the following evidence:

• Traffic camera video footage
• Surveillance footage from a nearby business or residence that captured the event or alleged crime
• Video footage from the police, such as from their vehicle’s dashcam or the officer’s body cam
• The police report about your arrest
• Statements from people who saw the event or alleged crime
• Photos and cell phone recordings of the event or alleged crime

We May Argue That Your Traffic Stop or Arrest Was Unlawful

Suppose we find that your traffic stop or arrest was unlawful upon reviewing the evidence. In that case, we may build a defense argument around this premise and establish how law enforcement violated your rights. This may help us get your charges dropped or reduced, depending on the circumstances of your case.

Some arguments we might make to assert this point include:

• The police officer did not have probable cause to pull you over for a traffic offense.
• The police officer did not read your Miranda rights to you or explain the nature of your arrest.
• The police officer did not properly calibrate their tools, such as a breathalyzer or radar, to determine whether you committed a traffic crime.
• The results for a breathalyzer, blood, or urine test were
• The police officer falsified evidence during your arrest.

There may be other arguments we can make for your case, which we will explain to you after we complete our assessment.
