Leesburg Traffic Ticket Lawyer

The Law Office of Caleb A. Kershner

Types of Traffic Violations in Loudoun County

Getting a traffic ticket in Leesburg means more than simply paying a fine.  If you pay the fine for a Leesburg traffic ticket, you are in effect allowing the court to find you guilty.  Such convictions for traffic tickets are reported to the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), which assesses demerit points against a driver’s license.

Accumulating too many points or being convicted of certain violations will lead to the loss of your license.  Insurance companies can access your DMV record to determine whether you are a safe driver.  With too many points, your automobile insurance rates may skyrocket.

Virginia traffic violations

Different amounts of points are assessed by the Virginia DMV for different traffic violations.  Some of the most common violations and the amount of demerit points are as follows:

• Illegal turn, 3 points
• Improper u-turn, 3 points
• Improper passing, 3 points
• Improper signal for stop or turn, 4 points
• Failure to yield right of way, 4 points
• Following too closely, 4 points


If you accumulate 12 demerit points in 12 months (or 18 points in 24 months), you will be required to complete a driver improvement clinic.  You must enroll in and satisfactorily complete the clinic within 90 days or your driver’s license will be suspended.   If you accumulate 18 demerit points in 12 months (or 24 points in 24 months), your driving privilege will be suspended for 90 days.
