how did your lawyer get you out of those?

 

maybe you should invest in good set of prescription glasses so you can read the speed limit signs...instead of getting a lawyer to fight a fucking speeding ticket.

 

did the officer not reduce it any?

 

Ok, before I start, I want to say I am NOT flaming, I do this too.... Why is it that when we see some guy driving like a jerk we think to ourselves "What an asshole!" and then we try to keep up? Like I said, I do it too, but I dunno why. I guess I usually do it cause the guy thinks he's hot shit, so I figure if I show him he's not as hot as he thinks then he'll stop? It's weird though, if some asshole drives by me like that, I start thinking that I'm a fuken cop or something and that it's ok for me to chase him.

 

Dekz...i know exactly what you mean, i think it's the fact that i don't like trucks much. they just think they're so badass cause they drive tanks and can haul shit. not an excuse though, i know what i did was wrong and i've done it enough times that 1 ticket is not really too bad. so wait, why would the cop lower your speed 10-20 mph in court? what would he gain out of this?

 

yeah i got a stoopid ticket for going 50 in a 35! but heres the funny thing! there was traffic(it was by a school) and when i saw the cop i got into the turn lane...i told him i couldnt have been going 50 in a turn lane and still slowed down to make this turn safely....he didnt care though...he singled me out cuz i was in a company car with stupid logos all over it. he didnt even turn his piggy lights on! oh well...i delayed the original court date til next month so i can gather some facts for it. wish me luck! any recommendations? thast radar thing about it being 20% accurate is pretty good stuff...feed me more info:bowdown::thumbup:

 

Well the lawyer used to be the DA in one of the towns, got the 54 in a 35 reduced to 0 points, $35. The 100 in a 55 I got reduced to 4 points with 24 hours community service, maximum fine(only $250), and a reflective essay. Then I took a defensive driving course, and that takes 4 points away.

 

so do you all think my best choice is to hire an attorney? we called today and it looks like it would cost 250 dollars....is it still worth it?
