Racing on a Highway

Charged with Racing on the Highway?

Las Vegas Traffic Ticket Attorney

Racing on the highway is not only highly dangerous, but it is also taken very seriously by law enforcement officials throughout Clark County. Not only does racing endanger the lives of the other drivers on the road, but it can also result in extensive property damage should the drivers lose control of their vehicles.

What are the Penalties for Racing?

Anyone caught racing on the highway could face charges for reckless driving, speeding, or reckless endangerment. Furthermore, if a driver is ticketed for racing, demerits points will be assessed to his or her driving record depending on how fast they were going.

For example:

  • 1 to 10 mph over the speed limit: 1 point
  • 11-20 mph over the speed limit: 2 points
  • 21-30 mph over the speed limit: 3 points
  • 31-40 mph over the speed limit: 4 points
  • 41 mph or more over the speed limit: 5 points
  • A driver will face enhanced penalties if any of the following circumstances are true:
  • The driver was driving under the influence
  • The driver caused an accident that resulted in extensive property damage, serious injury, or death
  • There were minors in the vehicle that was involved in the race

These factors can lead to incarceration in county jail, license suspension, steep fines, probation, community service, and mandatory participation at a traffic safety school.
