WHAT IS CRIMINAL SPEEDING? Criminal speeding in Arizona is a Class 3 misdemeanor that categorizes a speeding violation as a criminal offense (Arizona Revised Statutes 28-701.02).

IN ARIZONA, YOU CAN BE CHARGED WITH THE CRIME OF CRIMINAL SPEEDING UNDER A.R.S. § 28-701.02, IF YOU: Exceed 35 mph approaching a school crossing; or Exceed the posted speed limit by 20 mph in a business or residential district; or Exceed 85 mph elsewhere.

PENALTIES FOR CRIMINAL SPEEDING Up to 30 days in jail; Up to a $500 fine; 3 points on your license.

Though these are the possible punishments for criminal speeding, jail time is normally quite rare. In actuality, there are only a few judges in the state that will give jail for a first offense criminal speed ticket.

DEFENSES TO CRIMINAL SPEEDING The rules and laws surrounding criminal speeding are fairly straightforward. Truthfully, criminal speeding tickets can be fairly difficult to defend as so much of the time it comes down to your word against the officer’s word.
