FAQs

What should I do?

You're driving home from a late night dinner after work, and had a glass of wine or two with dinner. It's a little late, but you're almost home. Some aggressive driver behind you is driving really close, then backing away, and seems to be following you.

Should I pay those prior to court?

No! All tickets issued from the same traffic stop should be resolved at the same time and place despite some being "Must Appears" and some being Payable. "Must Appears", such as a DUI citation, is a traffic offense where the driver is required by law to appear in court, and usually have a potential penalty of not just a fine or points, but potential incarceration as well.

It didn't seem like they had any real reason to pull me over, can they do that?

The reason for the stop can't be nothing, but it doesn't have to be much. The State of Maryland recognizes pretextual stops. A pretextual stop occurs, for example, if an officer wants to pull a car over for suspicion of, say, having drugs in the vehicle, but doesn't have enough specific reasons to justify a stop based upon that suspicion.

What are the "Legal Limits in Maryland" for the purposes of DUI and DWI?

Driving under the influence per se is charged when a driver's blood alcohol concentration is over .08, resutling from a chemical breath test on an intoximeter. If a driver's blood alcohol concentration is under .08 but over .07, a presumption that a person was Driving while impaired is created according to Maryland law. This presumption can be overcome by the Defense in a dwi trial.

They didn't read me my rights, does the case get thrown out?

No. The reading of rights are reference to "Miranda" rights, that are read to an individual when being placed under arrest. Miranda rights inform a person that they have a right to an attorney and a right to remain silent.
