Defenses our AI considers (15)
- Equipment fixed — correctable violationhistorical success ~80%Equipment violations (window tint, exhaust, lights, plates, wipers, etc.) are correctable in every supported state. Proof of repair signed by a qualified inspector resolves the citation administratively.
- Documentary cure — proof on date of citationhistorical success ~75%Many "failure to produce" charges (insurance, registration, license) are dismissed on proof the document existed and was valid on the date of citation. This is codified in most state fix-it / correctable-violation statutes.
- Supporting deposition not timely served (NY CPL § 100.25)historical success ~60%N.Y. CPL § 100.25(2) entitles a defendant in a traffic matter outside NYC TVB to a supporting deposition containing non-hearsay allegations establishing every element. Failure to provide it within 30 days of a timely request is a jurisdictional defect requiring dismissal.
- Sign obscured, missing, or recently changedhistorical success ~50%A driver cannot be held to a regulation that was not reasonably communicated. An obscured, damaged, missing, or recently-changed sign at the cited location is both a mistake-of-fact defense and a due-process notice defect.
