Hello. I am going to court today with my Mom. A couple of months back she had a stroke while driving and rear ended a school bus. She doesn't remember much from the accident, so I am going just in case there are questions about the incident (I was the passenger). Now, there is no question that she hit the back of the school bus (no injuries, the bus driver didn't even know we hit them). Officer friends said that if the driver doesn't show to testify, she can plead not guilty and get off. This doesn't seem logical to me. She has a note from her doctor saying she did, indeed, have a stroke. Any ideas what I can expect in court today (I live in Illinois). Thanks!
