Tennessee Traffic Attorneys know that on June 26, 2008, the Tennessee Highway Patrol kicked off the campaign known as “100 Days of Summer H.E.A.T.” H.E.A.T. actually stands for “Highway Enforcement of Aggressive Traffic.” If you believe that you are seeing more Trooper activity on Tennessee’s roadways this summer, you are correct. The Governor’s Highway Safety Office received a grant that allows nearly 500 overtime hours to be spent monitoring alcohol-related offenses, speeding, and seat belt violations – three major causes of vehicle-related fatalities.

It is important for motorists to be aware of this aggressive campaign. Troopers across the state will be handing out an increased number of traffic citations – which can lighten your wallet and put points on your driving record. If you receive a speeding ticket or other traffic citation this summer, contact a Tennessee Traffic Lawyer. Our traffic lawyers can explain your options and the implications of simply paying the fine. If you are charged with an alcohol-related offense or serious traffic violation, you could be facing jail time and loss of your driving license among other penalties.
