Kansas's traffic violation laws are like those in most other states. If you commit three speeding and/or misdemeanor traffic violations within 18 months, your license will be revoked for at least six months.
Naturally, there are many other consequences for traffic violations and driving violations such as DUI's.
The punishment in drunk driving cases is set forth by the state statutes and can be incredibly complex. The basic Kansas statute determines the range of possible sentences, with modifications for such things as:
Having a prior conviction within seven years
Speeding 20 mph over the limit
Having a child under 14 in the car
Having a blood alcohol content reading over .20%
Refusing to submit to chemical testing
Some of the most common Traffic Violations include:
Child Restraint Law
Child Safety Seat
Cutting Corner
Disregard Traffic Control Device
Driver's License (DL) Violation
Failure to Fasten Seat Belt
Failure to Yield Right-of-Way
Failure to Maintain Financial Responsibility (vehicle insurance)
