Questão jurídica principal
Whether the three-month driver’s license withdrawal for a serious speeding offense should be reduced to one month
Decisão extraída
No. The court found the offense involved qualified fault and saw no basis to shorten the withdrawal period.
Fundamentação extraída
The appellant’s account was doubtful, since he admitted the offense immediately after the stop without mentioning any special circumstances and did not challenge the criminal penalty. Even accepting his version, he still assumed the risk of an unsafe passing maneuver and could have broken off the maneuver safely.
