While driving to upstate NY for vacationed this weekend, we got a speeding ticket for 50 mph in 25 mph. I'm pretty sure that DH was driving 30-35mph. It was dark in a local street and the speed limit sign was not visible. He got a clear driving record, should he plead guilty or hire a lawyer to fight the ticket? tia! [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

just pay it and get it over with. Cheapest way to resolve it. Also, in my experience, it is very easy to be driving 50 mph and it only feels like 35. [ Reply | More ]

what you need to do is continue to postpone your court date. That's what I did; the state trooper was re-assigned and not able to make my court date. It was automatically dismissed. [ Reply | More ]

they will catch you in those little towns. And if you were 35 in a 25mph zone, they'd still ticket you. Agree w/ other poster about postponing court date. [ Reply | More ]

i'm a lawyer- just go have some excuse- throw yourself on mercy of the court and even if you have to pay the fine you'll save on the points- if you live far away it may not be worth it though [ Reply | More ]
