Albert Hanyesworth pleads "not guilty" to 2 traffic charges [Tennessean]
This surprises me since in the copy of the police report Hogs Haven obtained, there are TWO eye witnesses, including the victim, that have him driving wrecklessly. Hogs Haven will dig deeper to attempt to obtain the defense's reasoning.

On albert

Maybe it’s my misudnerstanding of the TN highway rules, but
Why did he not recieve any citations at the scene of the accident other than an expired registration?

There was no proof

When the cop arrived, he filled out the report. He got Albert’s side, and an eye-witnesses side. The cop wrote in the report there were no signs alcohol was in play so that was probably the end of that.

How is the cop to know based on two different sides of the story who was speeding and who wasn’t, since accidents happen? I’m sure tests on the tire tracks could help determine speed, but it makes sense why charges were filed later once they realized the extent of everything.

My guess is that he’s working out a plea deal, and once that’s done, he’ll change his plea to guilty. But, he has to plead SOMETHING, so he’s starting out at Not Guilty. That’s very common, for a defendant to plead NG until the deal is done. (Because if they plead guilty, then the prosecutor’s job is done, and there’s no reason for a deal from the state’s perspective!)

Look for Albert’s lawyer to raise questions as to the credibility of the victim’s testimony, given that he’s begun civil proceedings against Albert and has a conflict of interest.

Also, I think you meant “recklessly”, but it was an excellent (and fitting) misspelling. :-)
