Understanding Traffic Violations in Connecticut
Serious Consequences for Reckless Driving and Other Traffic Offenses
Connecticut law has strict definitions and penalties for various traffic violations. Reckless driving, for example, is defined as operating a vehicle in a way that endangers others or driving at speeds over 85 miles per hour. This charge is more than a minor infraction—it can lead to fines, possible jail time, and a criminal record. Additionally, losing your license due to a traffic offense means no work permits will be available, impacting your ability to earn a living.
Attorney Mark Kratter uses his experience to analyze the evidence, evaluate the circumstances, and identify opportunities to reduce or dismiss charges. We will represent you in court, negotiate with prosecutors, and seek the best possible outcome to help you avoid long-term consequences like increased insurance rates, job disruptions, and family stress.
CDL Defense: Protecting Your Career and License
Comprehensive Defense for Commercial Drivers (CDL Holders)
If you hold a Commercial Driver’s License (CDL), a traffic violation is more than just a ticket—it’s a potential threat to your livelihood.

Certain offenses can result in CDL suspension or disqualification, effectively stopping you from working.

Our approach includes analyzing the circumstances of the stop, the validity of the evidence, and building a defense strategy aimed at minimizing the impact on your driving record and employment.
