No branch may enable a sole cop to have a sole defendant do "community service" to lead away from a value tag because the opportunity of corruption is too tremendous. the sturdy information is that if he makes such an grant, and also you ***** to the inner affairs human beings, you may be exceedingly particular of no longer getting the price tag in any respect. As for your universal question, for sure a value tag may issue after the very actuality. site visitors crimes are nevertheless crimes and are dealt with like different crimes. If someone robs a 7-11 and would not get in the present day arrested and the cops proceed to inspect, likely they can make the arrest later. a similar regulations follow to site visitors crimes.

Yes, in most states, police may issue a traffic citation days or even weeks later. This is especially true in the case of accident investigations and further questioning of witnesses. They may also amend a ticket to allege different statute violations, after getting an opinion of the district attorney, or their police superiors. You will still have to appear in court and answer the charges.

I depends on the jurisdiction. In my area a driving ticket is a moving violation which can be ticketed after the day it happened or was witnessed. Usually the officer has to witness the incident. In some cases a member of the public can be a witness but must sign as a witness.

Before a ticket is issued, the investigators will go over the evidence, ask questions of witnesses to determine who saw what, confirm the answers and decide if there were any laws broken.
It takes time to verify what has happened, longer than 15 minutes.
They may need longer than 4 days, and they will use it.

Yes. After they have completed their investigation of the accident and they find one particular person at fault, they can issue a ticket 4 days after the fact.

In Ontario, Canada we have up to six months after the offence to lay a highway traffic act charge. We can only issue a ticket with an out-of-court settlement during the first 30 days, after that we must proceed by way of summons.

It might be state specific, but in my state of CA specially trained officers investigating traffic collisions can issue citations for the primary collision factor upon review of the report.
