Can I do anything about this?
answered on Sep 6, 2012
Maybe. Check the Illinois Personnel Records Statute. I would first send a letter asking for them to supplement and see how they respond.
I was at a stop sign when the officer drove past he turned around and pulled in front of me. Is this grounds for speeding? He also pulled me over 20 minutes later and gave me a ticket for having the wrong address on my license but not in the system.

I would fight the ticket, especially since you have a CDL. There are plenty of good traffic attorneys in Illinois, including myself.

If you have the identity of the person that hit you, you should immediately contact a Connecticut personal injury attorney to help you.

No, they should still have to prove fault if you injured someone or their car was damaged. However, most states require auto liability insurance and you may be charged for a case in court on that basis. Consult an attorney where the accident happened ASAP.

Each state has their own rules but many states you can get the fair market value, sometimes a good rule of thumb is the average price of a similar make, model and mileage of the same vehicle at 3 dealers in the same locale. Contact an Alabama attorney immediately. I am only licensed in Illinois.

Yes. Not sure what you mean exactly but if someone caused a car accident they can be sued. Consult a NY attorney ASAP if that is where the accident occurred. I am only licensed in Illinois.
