交通罚单辩护 —— 你需要了解的事项

Traffic Ticket Defense – What You Need to Know

所以，你收到了一张交通罚单。接下来怎么办？你可能感到无助、害怕，甚至觉得生活被毁了，担心可能的后果，或者坚持自己无辜，什么错都没做。

这些都是在压力巨大的情况下非常正常的反应。

So, you have been issued a traffic ticket. Now what? You feel helpless, scared, feel like your life is over, worried about the consequences or claim you are innocent and did nothing wrong. These are all normal reactions during this stressful time.

有时候，警方会在逮捕你之前联系你，并声称只是想“和你聊聊”。在这种情况下，在与警察交谈之前咨询交通罚单专家是非常明智的。警方往往试图诱导你，从你那里收集不利证据。

千万不要与警方交谈，这不会帮助你。

Sometimes the police will contact you prior to arrest you and claim that they just want to talk to you. It would be wise at this point to consult a traffic ticket expert prior to speaking to the police. The police often intend to trick you and gather evidence against you. DO NOT SPEAK TO THE POLICE. It will not help you.

公众经常会问：“如果警察不上庭怎么办？” 在约克区的一个近期案例中，尽管警官没有出庭，被告仍然被定罪。虽然这个判决可能会在上诉中被推翻，但现实是，警察出庭率超过 95%。他们有报酬，会按时出庭。因此千万不要依靠‘警察不来’作为赢得案件的策略。

The public will often ask, “What if the officer doesn’t show up?” In a recent case in York Region, an individual was convicted even without the officer showing up. This is likely to be overturned on appeal, but officers generally will show up over 95% of the time. They are paid to show up and they will. DO NOT BANK ON THAT AS A STRATEGY TO TRY TO WIN YOUR CASE.
