I was pulled over said I was speeding, 41 in 25 that I dont think I was doing I was careful. But I did have an old tag that was assisned to the car, but when My Son died & I took the car they gave me a new plate. So can they actually charge me as a criminal charge? It was assigned but old. I had turned in My New tag to the car because I lost my job couldnt afford Ins. I did this because My Only Other Child needed a ride to work It was very foggy raining hard, I was scared for her, My Son died in 12/15/08, I had to do it, so many get killed walking around here. But I have no criminal record & dont want one for this.Please let me know what to do.
Answer
They most definitely can charge you with this criminal charge. It is a second degree misdemeanor, punishable by up to 60 days in jail. Even though you had good intentions, the prosecutor will undoubtedly say that you should have just put a proper plate on that vehicle. Even if you intended on using the same plate to transfer, it is still criminal. That all said, it can be fought. For example, the officer may not be able to prove the speeding aspect and therefore, we may be able to suppress the tag information. I suggest you get an attorney to fight this for you. I practice in Pinellas county so if you wish, just give me a call. My number is on the link below.
