If you are like most people, you have probably run a red light at least once in your life. You wouldn’t be the first who have been spotted by a police officer and issued a traffic ticket. It obviously is illegal to disobey traffic signals and signs, and of the many types of traffic violations, running a red light is considered to be one of the most dangerous. Thousands of people are injured and killed each year in Colorado due to failure to obey traffic signals, so police and judges typically prosecute this offense very seriously.
If you have been ticketed for running a red light, the law firm of Jaray & Webster has the vast experience in such cases and will represent you to help you fight the ticket. Often it can be argued whether a traffic signal was yellow as opposed to red. In these instances, the case becomes “one person’s word against the others”, and even the judgment of law enforcement officials can sometimes be skewed. Most individuals who are ticketed for running red lights simply pay the ticket to quickly resolve the issue. But doing so adds points to your driver’s record, which could result in license suspension and a drastic increase in auto insurance premiums. Our defense attorneys can protect your rights and provide support and guidance you need to prove yourself and effectively fight the ticket.
