Now you have finally made a reasonable argument against me, one which I have considered. I had been driving for an hour and could see fine. I pulled in directly facing the sun and was blinded and dazed, momentarily not seeing where I was going, which caused the accident. That is a reasonable...
Again, you don't appear to have read the cases that I cited (it was impossible for you have to read them that quickly) because again, the collision alone is NOT proof of an offense. Read the statement by the Virginia Supreme Court again.
Statement from "Powers v. Commonwealth by the Virginia...
Your interpretation of the law is wrong, both on its face and according to Virginia case law, which provides appropriate guidance on how to interpret the law. Are you familiar with using case law in this manner? I'm not trying to insult your intelligence, I'm simply asking. Statutes alone are...
Fair point. Everyone who gets into an accident "for which they are found liable" fails to control their vehicle. That doesn't mean that person is a guilty of a crime. They may be liable for the damage, but civil liability does not equal guilty of a misdemeanor punishable by up to a year in jail...
I strongly disagree with your post.
"Your right to due process is what the HOA says it is, not the due process you are entitled to outside the HOA enclave."
False. The United States Constitution, the Virgina State Constitution, and Virginia law trump any HOA procedures. I assume that HOA's are...
Hello, I would appreciate any helpful advice. I need assistance challenging HOA traffic citations and fines. I got into a car accident and struck a boom barrier (very slowly) due to being blinded and dazed by the sun. I accepted liability and paid back the HOA for replacing the barrier. However...
I'm not locked out. I have a hearing and legal counsel. I'm trying to obey the rules (now at least), but I got into a rare car accident (hit a barrier) that was not due to any recklessness on my part, but was given citations as if it was. I have a hearing on the matter and legal counsel. I have...
Thank you for your detailed response. Regarding access, it's complicated. The HOA is in a community out in the "country," a very rural area. I don't even know if Uber and Lyft serve this area, and it's a pandemic right now, making those unsafe options. Additionally, you have to have permission...
This doesn't really answer my question, but if I accept your analogy, it's not a comparable situation, as in your analogy, I would not live in the home. In real life, I live in the home and pay rent and a legally enforceable lease for the home.
Hello, my HOA has security patrols within the HOA community that issue traffic tickets (only applicable within the HOA, not on state record). I am a renter, and not a homeowner. This is a gated community. There is a provision in the regulations that say if a non-homeowner (renter, guest) gets 3...
