No Weight…No Case

Posted Monday, January 22, 2018 by Andrew Charles Huff

Great outcome today on a traffic matter in Snohomish County District Court. A commercial truck driver was cited for failing to obey a sign directing all vehicles over a certain weight to use the right lane at a specific point so vehicle information can be obtained by the state. However, this sign only applies to vehicles over a certain weight and the officer failed to indicate in his report how he determined this trucks weight. Without this evidence of how the vehicle weight was determined, case was dismissed.
