Client was involved in her first traffic crash, she was scared and fled the scene driving back home. The police put out a BOLO “Be On The Lookout” for her vehicle. A supervisor with the police department located her vehicle just prior to pulling into her neighborhood. He conducted a traffic stop on the vehicle, the client was identified as the driver of the hit and run vehicle, and she admitted that she was the driver the officers. After several weeks of back and forth negotiation with the State Attorney we came to agreement. The criminal charge of Leaving the Scene was dismissed and she was only responsible for a non-moving infraction of failing to provide information. The Client happily paid the $116 – no criminal charge and no points on her license.
