Traffic Tickets & Criminal Law
If you are stopped for a DUI, DWI or other traffic violation, remember the following suggestions:
- DO be polite and produce the requested documents.
- DO NOT say that it’s your fault, even if you think it is.
- DO NOT volunteer information. You are not required to answer ANY questions regardless of what the officer says.
- DO NOT lie to the officer. If you don’t want to answer a question, just don’t.
There’s a fifth step, too:
- Contact the Law Office of William G. Cownie LLC PC or call (816) 525-9200
