One of the most important privileges to hold is the privilege to drive. We drive to work, to church, to school and to the park. It is an important part of our freedom. Sometimes, however, accidents, mistakes and bad decisions can lead to that freedom being taken away. Losing your driving privileges and going to jail can be the results of driving offenses.
Some minor driving offenses do not require you to hire an attorney. Many, however, are serious. Driving while revoked or suspended could lead to losing driving privileges for years, and even jail time. This could affect your work and family life. DUI / DWI arrests are of course, very serious, and prosecutors are treating the crime more harshly all the time. At the same time, legislatures are lowering the legal drinking and driving limits, and passing stiffer sentencing laws. If you refuse to be tested for blood alcohol concentration, you could be charged with an additional crime. Hit and run accidents can result in a lost license and jail time. Vehicular manslaughter could lead to a long prison term.
All of these charges are a severe threat to your freedom - both your freedom to drive and your personal freedom from jail.
