Our client was charged with Duty to Give Information and Render Aid and Operating Without Insurance in Rhode Island. Both of these are civil traffic violations in Rhode Island. They have potential penalties of a fine, license suspension and/or negatively affecting your driving record. 

This is essentially a leaving the scene of an accident charge. After speaking with our client, we decided to select a trial date where the police would have to bring in evidence to prove the allegations. 

At the trial date, the charges were dismissed because the police could not meet their burden of proof.
