Motion To Dismiss Traffic Citation

This motion requests that a traffic citation be dismissed for two reasons. First, the defendant argues that the traffic sign showing the speed limit was hidden behind trees, so they did not know the speed limit had changed. Second, the motion states another unspecified ground for dismissal. The motion is submitted by the defendant and requests the court dismiss the citation with prejudice.
