What is Aggravated Speeding Under 625 ILCS 5/11-601.5?

Aggravated speeding means driving 26+ mph over speed limit or exceeding 85 mph. This is a criminal misdemeanor with enhanced penalties for excessive speed violations.

Unlike simple speeding cases, aggravated speeding involves complex evidence including speed verification, radar accuracy, and criminal penalty determinations. However, these procedures may contain technical flaws and constitutional violations that experienced defense attorneys can challenge to win cases.

The key to defending aggravated speeding charges lies in attacking the reliability of speed measurement evidence and constitutional violations during the stop.
