Attorney Ollman represented a CDL driver cited by the Rhode Island State Police for Following Too Closely while driving his personal vehicle. Despite having a clean driving record, the client could not take advantage of Rhode Island's good driving record statute because he held a Commercial Driver's License (CDL).

Attorney Ollman passed the Rhode Island traffic ticket for trial. On the day of trial, he negotiated with the State Police trooper and obtained a complete dismissal of the Following Too Closely charge in exchange for a contribution to a local charity.

Result: Traffic charge dismissed. No conviction. CDL protected.

This result demonstrates the importance of experienced representation for CDL holders facing traffic violations in Rhode Island, even when the ticket occurs while driving a personal vehicle.
