low visibility definition

low visibility of prosecutorial decisions means that very little information can be found in court cases about how the decision to prosecute was reached and even less information with regards to decisions not to prosecute, since these cases never reach the courts. The only available data relates to high profile cases where prosecution agencies are subject to external scrutiny by the media,144 but very little data is available on routine cases which constitute the daily workload of prosecutors. As a result, a purely doctrinal approach focused on the analysis of statutes and decisions of higher courts is unlikely to yield many findings with regards to the everyday decision-making process of prosecutors. This is not to say that the current legislation and prosecution policies, as well as disciplinary procedures and external inspectorate bodies’ roles, do not have to be examined. The existing literature also provides an indispensable theoretical frame to the study. Relevant here are not only research monographs and
low visibility means any time, when, owing to insufficient daylight or unfavourable conditions, persons or vehicles on a road are not clearly visible at a distance of 250 m to a person of normal vision.
