A Frederick speeding ticket lawyer who is familiar with the Frederick County, MD court system. I can help you avoid points on your driving record.
Did you receive a reckless driving ticket for speeding 30 MPH over the limit?
There is a narrow path to a favorable result!
An experienced traffic violation attorney can help to either dismiss or lower the charges.
Maryland Code § 21-901.1 : This violation is defined as driving in a manner that indicates a wanton or willful disregard for the safety of persons or property. Penalty: 60 days in jail. $1,000 fine. Six points.
As a general rule, Maryland courts will look to 6 examples of conduct:
- Driving 30 MPH over the limit.
- Failure to yield.
- Following another vehicle too closely.
- Failing to maintain a single lane.
- Improperly passing.
- Disobeying traffic signals
Did you come dangerously close to causing an accident? A reckless citation could follow.
Frederick County MD is the point where the 
I-270 and 
I-70 come together. Accordingly, there is heavy eastbound and westbound traffic. Additionally, Frederick County also hosts a stretch of 
US 15. In essence, there are many cars and trucks traveling through this area. Enforcement is strict.
Up until October 1, 2025, you could receive a 30 MPH over the limit ticket and simply pay a fine. However, with Maryland’s new law, you now must appear in court for a jailable offense.
Does this mean automatic jail time? Not necessarily. Your speed and your prior record will determine your sentence. For instance, a person with a clean record who was cited for driving 80 MPH in a 50 MPH zone stands a good chance of avoiding jail time – with the right preparation. On the other hand, a person traveling over 100 MPH with a spotted record may indeed go out the rear courtroom door.
