Re: Failure to Appear
Speeding normally does not result in a jail sentence. Driving while suspended usually does not result in a jail sentence unless it is a third offense.
You might give me a call.

Re: Failure to Appear
I have to disagree with Mr. Moore. You can get jail if you were speeding at a very high rate of speed. Regarding DWS, jail is mandatory on a second offense, 1-5 days, on a third offense, it is mandatory 10 days.
I suggest you get an attorney to help you with these charges. My initial consultations are always free, so call me at 732/247/3340 to discuss your case.
