Common Questions
Dangerous driving questions Ridgehill clients often ask.
Can residential street evidence help?
Yes. Parked vehicles, pedestrians, driveways, sightlines, and local video can all affect the assessment.
Should I preserve doorbell video?
Yes. Doorbell and dashcam footage can be overwritten, so save potentially relevant video quickly.
Can a complaint alone prove dangerous driving?
No. A complaint may start the case, but the Crown still has to prove the criminal charge.
