In most cases, driving offenses are more significant than initially meets the eye. License suspension follows the more serious offenses and all offenses usually result in increased insurance premiums.
It is important to remember that there are different standards of proof required for the different offenses as well as the necessary evidence. For a traffic infraction such as speeding, the state must prove by a “preponderance of the evidence,” a relatively low standard, while in a criminal citation such as Driving Under the Influence or Driving While License Suspended, the state has to prove by the standard of “beyond a reasonable doubt,” the highest degree of proof.
