WE are in Oregon, My son was in a car accident over three months ago He spent nearly 60 days in the hospital, 3 of those weeks were in ICU in critical condition.The rest were in accute care and in a rehabilitation unit. After 14 surgeries and alot of pain that may never go away. He came home finally with home health care nurses. And He may never walk again with out the aid of crutches, But shortly after he got home he recieved a letter from the local courts telling him that he had a court date for an arreignment and that he would be appionted a court attorney if he qualified. He found out that he was being charged with this reckless driving when he went to court. He was also given an attorney. HE WAS NEVER TALKED TO BE THE POLICE HE WAS NEVER ISSUED A TICKET. How can this be? The accident was only him, a one car accident. He lost control that much we know, there were witnesses that said that they say him sliding around a corner and they knew he had lost control and was going to crash, they also said that the car was flying and they thought that the car was going to hit them. He does not remember, we are just blessed to have him alive. How can this be that he is being charged with reckless driving? And on his accident report it says that he was cleared by arrest, what does that mean? He was never ticketed and never talked to by an officer, he is being offered a deal: 90 days suspension, 2 years probation and an undisclosed amount in a fine if he pleads guilty. I'm not fully understanding any of this. How can you plead guilty of a ticket that you were never given and why would they be offering probation in an accident, are they saying this accident was criminal? Thank you
