Motoring Offence Solicitors FAQs
Is a Driving Offence a Criminal Offence?
Yes, a driving offence is a criminal offence, and it will go on your record. However, unlike some more serious crimes, a criminal record for a motoring conviction does not stay with you for life.
Can I Get a Job with a Driving Conviction?
Your current role and future career aspects could be impacted by a driving conviction. This will depend on your job role, as well as the severity of the offence.
What is a Minor Motoring Offence?
The police can give you a fixed penalty notice for less serious traffic offences. This includes careless or inconsiderate driving, not wearing a seat belt, or using a mobile phone while driving.
