CDL Violations
Protecting Your Livelihood in CDL Defense Cases
If you have a commercial driver’s license (CDL), you are always “on duty” as far as the traffic laws of Georgia are concerned. Whether you are driving a truck on the job or driving your own vehicle on your own time, the sanctions against your CDL are the same.
Dutton & Dutton Law Firm, LLC represents drivers of 18-wheelers and other commercial vehicles who are tagged while driving a truck on the I-75 corridor of Central Georgia. We also represent CDL drivers who are on vacation or otherwise traveling through Georgia in their personal vehicles.
A Great Many Violations Threaten Your CDL
Our firm handles all traffic citations and trucking-specific offenses, including:
- Speeding and traffic violations
- Improper lane changes or passing
- Failure to stop at railroad crossings
- Other traffic violations (passing, tailgating, red lights, etc.)
- Driving under the influence (alcohol, drugs, prescription meds)
- Weight violations
- Equipment violations
- Logbook violations
We understand that certain offenses would end your driving career abruptly and that any speeding or traffic violations are magnified in regard to your CDL. We know how critical it is for you to maintain your ability to drive for a living.
Our lawyer has worked on more than 700 cases and understands how law enforcement operates and how to challenge traffic stops.
We also know how to work with local prosecutors to negotiate resolutions that limit the damage or even keep your citation from being reported back in your home state. In some cases, we can arrange to have the charges reduced or dismissed when the liability or fault is really on the part of the employer and not the driver.
