The Crime
An Improper Turn is a traffic offense that can damage your driving record. If you are convicted of an Improper Turn and you possess a Tennessee driver’s license, the Tennessee Department of Safety will assess 4 points on your motor vehicle record (MVR). If you have been charged with an Improper Turn, you should seek help from the Knoxville traffic attorneys at the Oberman & Rice Law Firm.

Why Hire An Attorney Immediately?
It is important to act quickly in order to gather and preserve favorable evidence if necessary. Key evidence (faces, dates, events, and conversations) fades from memory over time. Also, video evidence may be destroyed. Therefore, it is critical to begin an investigation as soon as possible to ensure valuable evidence is not lost. Success or failure in any Tennessee traffic case may be determined in the decisions of the defendant and his or her Tennessee Traffic Attorney in the days after a citation is written.
