Since I don’t have more details, here’s general guidance: Yes—30 mph over in Tennessee is serious, and getting a lawyer is highly recommended. Reasons: possible criminal reckless-driving charge (T.C.A. § 55-8-136), license points (12 in 12 months can trigger suspension per Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 1340-01-04-.04), likely insurance hikes.

A lawyer can negotiate or challenge evidence and procedures.

Hi! I’m Lori, an attorney.

  1. What city did you get the ticket in?
  2. Do you have a court date?
  3. Any other recent tickets?

I don't know.
