There’s even a decent chance that you’ve been caught by a red-light camera yourself and had to pay a fine as a result. But why are red-light cameras so common, and how are they legal in the first place? Continue reading “How Are Red-Light Cameras Legal?”

Car Crash Occurs at Same Intersection Where Fatal Limousine Accident Took Place

The Suffolk Times reported that three people were hospitalized after their car was rear-ended by another vehicle at the intersection of County Road 48 and Depot Lane in Cutchogue. The site of the crash was also the same place where a fatal limousine accident occurred last year.

According to the article, a 23-year-old man driving a 2005 Nissan was heading westbound on CR 48 on July 31, 2016, at approximately 6PM, when he was hit from behind a 19-year-old driving a 2013 Nissan. Three passengers in the second vehicle suffered minor injuries and were treated at Eastern Long Island Hospital. No charges were filed.

Canadian Visitor Dies in Dump Truck Accident

On February 12, 2016, a 48-year-old woman was fatally struck by a dump truck while in a crosswalk in Manhattan.  The woman, who was visiting from Canada, died at the scene from internal injuries.

According to the New York Daily News, the driver will probably not face criminal charges.  The driver of the truck apparently did not see her crossing the street due to a blind spot and did not realize he had struck her until he turned the corner.

Understanding the Difference Between DWI and DWAI in New York

Driving While Impaired (DWAI – in lay terms “buzzed driving”) means your ability to operate a motor vehicle has been affected to any extent by the consumption of alcohol. DWAI is a violation, not a crime. Driving While Intoxicated (DWI – in lay terms “drunk driving”) means you are physically and mentally incapable of driving as a reasonable and prudent person due to the consumption of alcohol. Driving While Intoxicated is a crime.

An excellent team of people who work together to get you the results you need. I am fully satisfied with their services and am glad I decided to not take on the burden of having to deal with my case on my own and allowed them to do so instead saved me a lot of time missed from work as well as an excellent result was obtained on my behalf.

Mr. Bennett, Mr. McGuire, and Joanna were an absolute pleasure to work with. Joanna was quick to schedule a meeting for me with Mr. McGuire. I had met with Mr. McGuire and he was very insightful as to what would need to be done to resolve my traffic cases. Mr. Bennett had been assigned to handling my traffic cases and was very diligent in working out the best deal with the traffic agency. He was very professional and remained in contact with me throughout the entire process. Overall, I am incredibly pleased with Mr. Bennett's efforts and am so thankful that team McGuire, Pelaez & Bennett prioritized my traffic cases and was able to handle the matters efficiently and in a timely manner.
