Speeding

Can a state official if not witness an accident?

I recently got in a car accident, lost control and went into a ditch. No other cars involved and no injuries. I got tickets improper lane use and failure to reduce speed. If I plead not guilty to get these dismissed because there were no witnesses? The tickets were issued by the Illinois State Police. Thanks.

The state official as an "expert witness." We investigated the accident and wrote the accident report and issued the citation based on how you played and the statements of other drivers and the physical evidence. Based on their experience and training.
