‘Trends in Traffic Cases’ explored in NCSC webcast

The National Center for State Courts will present a webinar on   “Data Dives - What is Driving the Trends in Traffic Cases” Thursday, December 12, at from noon to 1 p.m. via Zoom.

Traffic cases consistently account for nearly half of all incoming cases in the state courts, but have experienced a dramatic decline in recent years. What factors are behind this trend and will the numbers return to previous levels?  This webinar will look at what NCSC has uncovered by examining detailed data from several states.
