Out of State Driver Traffic Laws

Post image5

State traffic laws in Virginia are unforgiving. Virginia’s traffic code identifies 14 different driving violations that fall under reckless driving, one of which is speeding 20 mph over the limit. Countless out-of-state drivers, commercial truck drivers and vacationers get ticketed on Virginia’s Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunneldge Tunnel — a 23-mile speed trap that offers no roadside landmarks or reference points that might indicate how fast your vehicle is traveling.

In addition to the tunnel, reckless driving charges are frequently issued along I-64, I-664, I-264, Highway 58 and Highway 13. If drunk driving charges were brought against you while you were passing through the state, either on vacation or assignment, you should consider hiring a Virginia defense lawyer. It’s advantageous to choose a lawyer who is familiar with the jurisdiction where your case will be tried.

We know the stakes are high. We defend commercial truck drivers who can’t afford to lose their commercial driver’s licenses (CDLs), military service members who risk the loss of security clearances if convicted, and college students who hope to complete their degrees and pursue careers without hindrance. No matter your situation, we’ll work with you to protect your driver’s license and status, combat alleged traffic offenses and keep unwanted criminal convictions off your permanent record.

Testimonials

Well, hard to believe… job done! I’m frank to admit I had no idea that it would be so involved compared to 10 years ago when I did the renewal myself. Happily I was fortunate enough to find the best people to help get it done this time. When I was a working stiff it was mostly as a field guy in sales & marketing. High tech communication in those days was a pay phone in customers’ lobbies, so someone back in the office skilled in dealing w/problems was absolutely essential when I couldn’t be contacted. Most of those who supported me that way were good at what they did, some were outstanding. None were better than you!! This tedious & sometimes worrisome process would have been unbearable without your keeping it, & me, on track. So we want to extend our thanks to you and Radlyn. Hoping for Gardner & Mendoza to continue the good work for many years to come. - Anonymous
Gardner and Mendoza Law Firm is a great law firm no matter what kind of situation you may be in! For example I had court today, John Gardner, my attorney represented me today and got the charged dismissed totally the first time we both appeared in front of the judge in Virginia Beach Traffic Court. He uses every bit of knowledge he can to help you get the best results!! He also works very well with Latinos! They have a Spanish speaking person in their office at all times!! - Sebastian
My husband and I had a great experience with Mrs. Mendoza. She provided excellent information and a sense of urgency with every step of our immigration process. Her team was always supportive in getting us the information we needed throughout the whole process. This legal firm also treats their clients with the highest levels of respect. In all of Virginia I would say that the Gardener & Mendoza team is the best recommendation for same sex immigration cases and for immigration cases in general. It was a pleasure to work with them. - Anonymous
I Highly Recommend Radlyn Mendoza, An Excellent Immigration Lawyer. My wife and I were very worried about my wife’s immigration and legal status. We were quite impressed with Attorney Mendoza during our initial consultation. She proved to be a smart, knowledgeable, and very capable immigration attorney. She and her staff were very helpful and responsive to all of our requests. Kudos to her and staff, especially Leesa, for successfully handling our case. Thanks for a job well done. - Thomas and Cheong W.
My daughter received a reckless driving ticket going 60 in a 35 mph zone, so understandably, I was very concerned. In court, Mr. Gardner was able to get the reckless driving charge and ticket completely dismissed due to his knowledge of what the police officer had to present in court. Mr. Gardner was a familiar face to the judge and the clerks in the Virginia Beach courthouse. When we contacted John Gardner’s office at Gardner & Mendoza, he and his staff made us feel comfortable by explaining the whole process to us. His track record and the reviews online helped make the decision to choose Mr. Gardner over other attorneys easy. I highly recommend Mr. Gardner. He gave us peace of mind and won the case too! - Michelle
