| | | violation? plz help
What is the name of your state? Maryland
Hello everyone,
aA few months ago, I received PBJ for leaving the scene of an accident. Four other charges were placed on stet docket (reckless driving, negligent driving, not returning to the scene, and failure to control speed to avoid collision). I regret my actions and was trying to do my best to get everything back together. Then just last night I hit someone at an intersection. Everyone's ok and I was only cited with failure to yeild. Now I am scared to death all these other charges will be brought back up. The accident occured in another county, will they necessarally violate me? What do you thinK is going to happen now... Thanks greatly for any advice. |

| | | Not sure, when I've been in disrtict court in Wasginton county, allegany county etc. everyone who pleads guilty gets PBJ so you could try for it again in the hopes that the court/DMV is too screwed up to find the previous PBJ (i have a feeling the judge will have no clue and there will typically not be a prosecutor to review your record) however it seems to be a bad risk/reward
On the failure to yeild the other driver would most likely have to appear to get the conviction, I've seen the judges just make dismissal when the other driver does not show and the trooper states he did not witness the event.
If you have paid for the damages through insurance, the other driver may not care to show. also, showing this will help your court case and you may be able to ask the DA about changing it to a non-moving in light of that.
so for sure show up to court on you assigned court date. after that if you can afford an attorney and can find a competant one for the failure to yeild in the $500 range that might be a wise choice to avoid the other charges hitting you. otherwise you have a couple of options to try with hopefully no other driver showing up.  |

She may have violated her probation, so no witness needed.

In fact, you are so astonishingly correct in this matter, it will not surprise us one bit if you are offered a generous settlement, because, by golly, that’s just how it should be.
You Rock,

If you could read you can look into the STATEWIDE court system as administered by MD. |

| | | thanks for the responses. Cepe, yes, I am am hoping the courts won't realize I am on probation. I will be on trial in Talbot county and the prior offenses were in Wicomico. If they find out I suppose I will be w-out a license for a while with some hefty fines to pay and a lot of points. |

Nice advie by you and shay-flakie |

Nice advie by you and shay-flakie | How would I be convicted of a violent crime? I don't advocate throwing coffee in a person's face because of traffic altercations. And if someone was to get a year, they would be doing it in county jail. State prison is for convicts sentenced to more than a year. And what is a advie?
