What Traffic Offences Do We Handle?

We specialise in defending a wide range of Queensland traffic offences, including:

Licence-Related Offenses
Dangerous Driving
  • Dangerous or negligent driving
  • Failing to provide a specimen
  • Demerit point suspensions
  • Racing or speed trials

If your matter relates to alcohol or drugs, such as drink or drug driving, please also visit our pages on:

Penalties for Traffic Offences in QLD

The penalties you face depend on the type of charge and your prior driving history. You could be facing:

  • Licence disqualification periods
  • Large fines or court costs
  • Mandatory minimum penalties (for repeat offences)
  • Probation or community service orders
  • In more serious cases, a term of imprisonment

We work with you to build a defence that addresses the court's concerns, whether it's explaining personal hardship, showing rehabilitation, or presenting supporting documents.

Can You Still Apply for a Special Hardship Order?

If your licence has been suspended due to demerit points or a speeding offence, you may be eligible to apply for a Special Hardship Order (SHO). This court order allows limited driving for work or family needs, even while suspended.

Our team handles:

  • Eligibility assessments
  • Preparation of court applications & affidavits
  • Representation on the day of your hearing

  • Appear in court on your behalf
  • Explain the process clearly
  • Present strong submissions aimed at reducing penalties
