Frequently Asked Questions About DUI and Traffic Violations in Maryland
1. Can a traffic violation affect my car insurance rates in Maryland?
Yes. Depending on the violation, whether you are found guilty, and your insurer’s policies, a traffic offense may affect your insurance premiums. Certain violations can also result in points on your Maryland driving record. Reviewing the potential consequences before deciding how to respond to a citation can help you make a more informed choice.
2. What if I received a Maryland traffic citation but live in another state?
Living outside Maryland does not automatically remove your obligation to address a citation issued in the state. The consequences may depend on the offense, your license jurisdiction, and any applicable interstate reporting rules. Review the instructions on your citation and seek legal guidance before assuming you can ignore it.
3. Can I drive while my DUI case is pending?
That depends on your license status and any restrictions or suspension orders that apply. A DUI arrest can involve a separate MVA process, and the rules governing your driving privileges may differ from the schedule of your criminal court case. Check any paperwork you received and obtain legal guidance promptly before driving if your status is unclear.
4. How do I find out whether a traffic citation has a court date?
Review the citation and any notices sent by the court. You can also use the Maryland Judiciary's Case Search or contact the appropriate District Court for information about your case. Do not assume that you have no obligation to appear simply because you have not received a notice; confirm the status and follow the instructions that apply to your citation.
