Yes, insurance companies can still see and consider the violation on your record, even if you completed traffic school and had the point removed. This is because CDL holders are held to higher standards, and violations remain visible on their records for longer periods, regardless of whether they... View More
The pedestrian was not in or near the crosswalk as I turned. They stepped in as I turned, and it was too late for me to stop; otherwise, I would have been in the middle of the crosswalk. I was alone in my car. Can I fight this ticket?
answered on Dec 20, 2024
Yes you can fight this ticket, but I would definitely suggest a good lawyer as these are hard tickets to fight. Unfortunately the fact that the person stepped in the crosswalk meant that you needed to immediately stop and yield to the pedestrian.

If you received a misdemeanor citation, yes, the police must submit a report to the District Attorney's office for prosecution to proceed. Without this report, the DA cannot formally file charges or proceed with the case.

I admitted to living in MN for a year and a half while having a ND drivers license. I was given a citation and misdemeanor. Can that be dismissed if I get a MN drivers license immediately?

From what you've described, having two joint tax transcripts for 2022 and 2023 should be sufficient since you weren't required to file U.S. taxes in 2021 as you weren't living in the country. Your husband's "married filing separately" status for 2021 won't... View More

Officer did not ask or state he was going to search and opened packages that I had on my box truck to deliver to customers.

He only needs to ask if he uses consent as the basis for the search.
