Truckers record can the trucker fight it
Yes, you can. Protect your CDL. A Mississippi attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for two weeks and you probably have a small window of time in which to respond or appear, if you have not already done so or consulted with an attorney. If you're going at it alone, good luck.... Read more »
Could the Apartment Owners be liable for damages to my car. The Apt. Manager was informed several times in the past year of a person who was banned from Apts had been selling drugs
A Mississippi attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. It could be fact-specific in terms of security measures. There is no universal "yes" or "no" answer. Good luck

I accidentally backed into a mailbox one day. Luckily the mailbox wasn't damaged, but the rear blinker light on the passenger side of the vehicle cracked open and the bulb was shattered. Even if I put a new bulb in, the bulb itself will be exposed and visible. If a police officer sees this,... Read more »
A Mississippi attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for three weeks. Probably, because in many places, that could prevent passing safety inspection. For more precise state-specific standards, a local attorney would know DMV safety checklist best. Good luck

A Mississippi attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for four weeks. The things you could do are probably things you've already thought of... posting signs requesting that drivers slow down, particularly if children play in the area. It's unlikely, but you could ask your... Read more »
No--regardless of whether or not you can recover money from an accident, if you are injured you should seek medical attention for your injuries.

I can go into more detail if need in a private email.
There is no law that you must receive a citation---those are discretionary.
Get the check for the insurance to get another since I’m paying for the car in the bankruptcy ? Since no one will give me a loan to get a car because my credit is low the first thing that shows up is the ch. 13 bankruptcy so it’s an automatic no.

He reversed and pushed my car out of the way with his car. Then when he was able to get out, he backed up and hit my car again before driving off . I’m not pressing charges & I wasn’t injured, but can the police? I heard them mention something about private property, but also heard them... Read more »
It could be any number of charges.
For starters, for the damage to your car, get estimates and send them to your insurance company.
After the driver struck me, he proceeded to accelerate into my truck trying to flee while I was standing on the outside of his truck making sure him and his passenger were okay and also trying to get his insurance information.
You may end up being eligible for compensation since he was trying to flee. Typically, in these situations, there will be some interplay between the compensation act and the insurance company. I would highly recommend that you reach out to a lawyer that has experience in both areas so that they can... Read more »
They exchanged information and the other driver admitted fault. But told his insurance they were both at fault. We had to file police report, get them to acquire the video and get the video sent to them. I keep calling the other driver insurance to get the status of the claim but he hardly ever... Read more »
A Mississippi attorney could best advise here, but your post remains open for three weeks. I hope your son and the other driver are okay. As a general matter, I do not see a situation that would provide the basis to sue for mental distress. Because the other driver told his insurance that both... Read more »
The notice saying you need to send proof would say who it is. If your license is in Mississippi it would be to the department of driver licensing. Your state police should be able to tell you.
Good luck!

I'm already paying for an older charge, and I am not on probation
Likely not, as most people are not put in jail for tickets. That being said, as long as you are still paying towards your older charge, you should still be good to go. As to the car accident, I would encourage you to reach out to a lawyer, as you may be entitled to compensation if the other driver... Read more »

I know financially I am liable but as far as punishment what is the standard. They so far have issued
her two traffic tickets. No license and no insurance which are both in adult court because there is no traffic violations for youth so what do you think will happen
she has a defense as an 11 year old can't form intent (they say). As far as the no insurance it's knowingly operate the car on the road without.
As to the insurance, if you notified the insurance company when you bought the new car or shortly after that then it would have... Read more »
