Serious traffic charges dropped

Our female client, in her mid 20s, was charged with reckless driving, driving under the influence of alcohol and driving without a motor driver’s license. Our team assessed the evidence and determined the prosecution would not be able to prove, beyond reasonable doubt, the identity of the driver. After numerous court appearances and an adjourned trial in a suburban Magistrates Court the prosecution eventually agreed they could not prove the charges and offered no evidence. The charges were dismissed and our client was awarded costs.
