Traffic Offences
Don’t Lose Your License Because You Didn’t See A Traffic Offence Lawyer
In most criminal law cases, it will be on the prosecution to show beyond a reasonable doubt that the alleged offence has occurred. However, traffic offences can be particularly hard to get out of because of a thing built into the legislation called deeming provisions.
Deeming provisions operate so that as long as the police can prove a few basic facts, you will be “deemed” to have committed the offence.
This can make traffic cases particularly hard to contest unless you know the legislation inside-and-out. Call us now on 1300 MY QCLS – (1300 697 257) to find out how we can help.
