In the most common situation, there is a car accident and the police officer comes to the scene after the accident. The police typically investigate the accident and interview the involved parties and witnesses. Subsequent to their investigation the police will often issue traffic tickets to the parties involved in the accident. These tickets often charge motorists with serious traffic violations such as Following Too Closely or Improper/Imprudent Speed. Such charges usually carry high fines and cause your insurance rates to go up. Compounding the problem is the increase in insurance premiums from the car accident itself.
There is good news. Since the police officer never witnessed the alleged violation the case is weak. A seasoned traffic ticket attorney can utilize several different methods to beat the ticket. The attorneys at the Benjamin Goldman Law Office have successfully beaten such tickets. Feel free to contact us to discuss your situation. We can be reached by email, text message, or phone call.
