Dangerous Driving

Specialist Dangerous Driving Solicitors

A dangerous driving offence is made out where an offender’s manner of driving falls way below what is expected of a reasonable and competent driver. For instance, driving at excessive speed, aggressive driving, ignoring road signs, undertaking and overtaking where it is illegal or obviously dangerous. This is not an exhaustive list and there are many other examples that fall into this category. If you have been accused of dangerous driving, call Carter Moore Solicitors today on 08458 737 333 or complete our enquiry form and one of our motoring solicitors will be in touch within 24 hours.

Often, dangerous driving offences rely on eyewitness testimonies and it is for the prosecution to prove, beyond reasonable doubt, an offence occurred. Carter Moore Solicitors are experts in carefully analysing the prosecution’s case, cross-examining witnesses and preparing your case to the highest standard. It is essential in this type of driving offence that you have a specialist motoring lawyer to represent you. Our team has years of experience in this type of matter and we will work to ensure you get the best result.

Dangerous Driving Penalty

Like drink driving, dangerous driving carries a mandatory minimum period of disqualification of 12 months. In serious cases a sentencing court has the option of imposing a number of community based penalties. The most severe cases can result in a custodial sentence to a maximum of 6 months at the magistrates’ court and 2 years from the Crown Court.
