SPEEDING IN CONSTRUCTION ZONES VIOLATIONS IN RACINE COUNTY ON THE RISE FOR ILLINOIS AND WISCONSIN DRIVERS

Racine County represents a large corridor between the Illnois border north of Kenosha almost through to Milwaukee. Many Illinois and Wisconsin drivers are routinely cited for speeding violations in Racine County. The recent Foxconn Enterprises business contract has created a demand for upgrades and improvements to the Racine County infrastructure, specifically Interstate 94 and surrounding roads.

To deter speeding andprotect the safety of the myriad of workers and other drivers in tight modified single lane stretches Wisconsin law provides for enhanced fines for construction zone violations sometimes doubling the regular fines in these areas. There has been increased enforcement of the speeding in a construction zone in Racine county in 2019 as documented here: https://fox6now.com/2019/08/20/a-death-wish-more-than-80-drivers-cited-for-speeding-in-i-41-94-construction-zone/ By comparison Illinois law provides for high minimum fines and license suspension for two construction zone violations in two years. An Illinois licensed driver convicted of a construction zone violation in Wisconsin faces not only the enhanced monetary penalty, but the reporting of a conviction to the Illinois Secretary of State and the ancillary notification to the driver's insurance company.

WHAT CAN A TRAFFIC OR SPEEDING TICKET ATTORNEY LICENSED IN ILLINOIS AND WISCOSIN DO FOR AN ILLINOIS DRIVER WITH A RACINE COUNTY CONSTRUCTION ZONE TICKET OR CITATION?

I have appeared regularly on behalf of Illinois drivers in Racine County Wisconsin for many years before the highway construction project and have handled construction zone violations now and will continue to do so into the future. I am often able to secure an amended, non-construction zone violation that protects the Illinois driver from the reporting of a conviction to the Illinois Secretary of State and their insurance company. With proper authorization I can also appear alone on behalf of my Illinois clients. My appearance saves the cost of missing work and potentially spending hours to attend traffic court in Racine County Wisconsin with uncertain results.
