We will ask you to take many pictures from many angles to determine if the stop sign was indeed obscured from view. Our lawyers will also want to see a picture of the crosswalk and stop line limit… are they easy to see or so worn as to not be recognized? We will ask if you did stop. If you did… did you stop early? Could the officer see you stop? Where was the officer? We will want to know all of the details so that we can piece together an effective defense.
