Traffic Violations & License Defense in Liberty

Traffic violations in Liberty may seem minor, but accumulating points on your South Carolina driving record can result in license suspension, increased insurance rates, and employment complications, especially for commercial drivers whose livelihood depends on maintaining clean driving records.

The Law Office of H. Chase Harbin helps Liberty area drivers fight traffic tickets, challenge license suspensions, and navigate the South Carolina Department of Motor Vehicles reinstatement process. Our firm has extensive experience defending against reckless driving, speeding, and other moving violations that threaten your mobility and insurance rates.

With Liberty's scenic mountain roads and seasonal tourist traffic creating increased enforcement activity, even routine traffic stops can escalate to serious charges like reckless driving or DUI, making immediate legal representation essential for protecting your driving privileges and avoiding long-term consequences.

South Carolina's point system assigns values to traffic violations, with license suspension occurring at 12 points within 12 months or 18 points within 24 months. Serious violations like reckless driving carry 6 points, while speeding tickets range from 2-6 points depending on your speed over the limit.

Liberty drivers facing point accumulation can request administrative hearings to challenge suspensions, and we've successfully argued for reduced charges that minimize point assessments and preserve driving privileges. Commercial drivers face federal disqualifications with even minor violations, requiring specialized defense strategies.

Contact us immediately if you've received a traffic citation in Liberty, as South Carolina requires responses within 30 days and allows only limited time to request trial dates that preserve your right to legal representation.
