Is this correct, Michael?  |
Technically, traffic trained officer can write a citation based on the facts of the accident and often times will at a later date.. No witnesses are required. In this case, it would be very easy to issue him a citation for 22350cvc. Unsafe speed. But that is not criminal, its an infraction and he may be cited once the traffic collision report is completed.
