Category: Traffic

A college student found herself in a very unfortunate situation when she was driving home from school and got into an accident. The officer who responded cited her for failing to maintain an assured clear distance ahead.

Knowing that an accident and an assured clear distance ticket on her record would dramatically increase her insurance rates, the student knew she had to take action. That’s when she contacted Cincinnati Criminal Defense Attorney Brad Groene.

Groene immediately began work on the case. He contacted the Hamilton County prosecutor and the insurance companies handling claims from the accident to gather all of the necessary information about what happened. Groene discovered that the police officer who cited the student couldn’t verify a few key facts in the case. That meant the prosecutor had a relatively weak argument if the case went to trial.

After lengthy discussions with the prosecutor, Groene was able to get the charge dismissed. The college student can know rest easily knowing she won’t have an assured clear distance conviction on her record and her insurance rates won’t go up because of this accident.
