My son was making a right turn at the intersection he had a green so slowed down looked and proceeded into the turn. It was pouring rain and the was a big pool of water as he got arround the curb. He tried to keep the car going sharp right however it slid into the car making a left turn. the lane he was turning into is very narrow and at a very busy corner. He paniced and left the scene only to return to it when he drove arround the block to collect himself, when he got back the scene was all gone. An officer came to the house and said our son just fled an accident. we called his cell and he said he was on his way to the staion and the officer left to meet him there. Charge with careless driving he is 18. Can we beat this charge?

no problem summons = when some is charged and has to appear before the court subpoena = witness that is ordered to come to court to give evidence

Ah okay, wasn't sure if it was a summons or subpoena they would be issued, disregard my suggestion unless the lady who was hit doesn't mind potentially getting into big trouble.

A warrant for arrest could be issued for failing to attend court for a witness. I can not remember if the person is also charged with obstruct justice or not? I'm not in the court processes enough to know the proper answer....sorry

I was involved in a collision a while ago. I was doing a left turn/u-turn in an intersection at the same time as someone else was doing a right-turn on the crossing road. There was no "no-u-turn" sign. My light was green and his was red. We basically converged in the center lane. There wasn't any…

Sorry if i may be posting in the wrong thread my questions are as follows;
1. Are Highway Traffic Act Matters Kept Public? Say if someone did an Appeal would that appeal be kept as public record accessible to anyone who may need it for reference?
