Speeding Ticket help

[rydog]

so i received a speeding ticket in august 2010, 93 in a 55. on the way to that court date in January 2011 i received another speeding ticket 82 in a 65. when i was at court they told me i would be back in 6 months and then they would review my record. i was hoping to have had my court date for the 2nd ticket by that time and try to get it dismissed but no such luck. My review is coming up in a few days and i am still going to have that 2nd ticket on my record. I have completed a 6 hour class in april 2011 and will be bringing that certificate.

1) What should i be expecting?
2) Is the 2nd ticket on my record even though i have not gone to court for it yet?
3) any advice on what to say?
thanks for the help and any advice is welcome

The only help I can offer is to cut your driving license in small pieces...

First off, STOP SPEEDING! I mean, I used to do that s*** so I can't talk much, but seriously. Stop driving like an ***hole.

Second, there's not a whole lot you can do/say in court to get out of either of these. Taking the class should cut one out, but it depends on your state's laws. As far as the tickets themselves, your pretty screwed unless the judge happens to be in a good mood. I mean, I've gotten out of worse without paying a penny and no points on my license, but that was pure luck.

All I can say is be super f*** polite, always say "sir" or "ma'am", and refer to the judge as "your honor". Be apologetic, be sincere. Don't act like an a** or you'll get hammered.

1. That depends on several circumstances, including how many points you have not including these tickets, the state you live in, (the # of points before losing your license can vary), the mood of the judge at your hearing, your behavior, if the cop is inclined to offer you a plea deal, etc.

2. Also depends on the state, who issued the ticket (state police vs local). Some municipalities are slow to report. If it was a state trooper, odds are they'll see it.

3. On what to say? not much. Be polite, dress nicely, be remorseful (not for getting caught), but be sincere that you acted irresponsibly. Don't say something dumb like other cars were going as fast. Driving is a privilege and you drove like it's was a "right". Keep that in mind.

You might as well bring the certificate along, but if that 2nd ticket made it's way into the state records, it won't be worth much as your 2nd ticket will prove you learned nothing. If you're lucky the cop/judge might take pity on you and give you the break, but they're under no obligation to do so.


My advice is to:
1. contact a lawyer who specializes in this kinda stuff to better advise you of your options.
2. Slow down..

Holy hell, 93 in a 55?

Can you even go that fast in an Altima Coupe?

X2, even my worst speeding ticket was never that much.

SLOW DOWN! I did that crap for the first 2-3 years I had my license but I never went that fast, you're just asking for it at that point. You'll be lucky if you don't lose your license honestly, with already having a prior violation that was similar. It depends on your state laws, but in GA if you exceed 24mph over the speed limit, they have the right to take you to jail at the scene at the officers discretion, and unless you get the speed reduced, you would be losing your license too most likely.

Hire a lawyer and go to one of the defensive driving classes is the best advice I can give you, but even then, you're going to have to hope that they don't find that other violation first and/or you have a judge that's in a good mood.

You're looking at a suspension of your license. You need a lawyer because of speeding to the court.

I say your real problem is planning. You most likely speed everywhere because you are late, you obviously need to build more time into your travel plans.

Must've taken a hell of a lot of time to build that much speed with that 170hp QR.

Or he just speeds everywhere with his 170hp poop.
