Went to Court on Monday for a speeding ticket

[Broli]

ok

i went to court on edward street for a speeding ticket that i got a while back!
either way it was a first attendence
so i got it plead down to 60 in a 50 and no points
i can live with that!


but i was coughing really bad, i tried to postpone the court date, but
it couldn\'t happen cause the cancelled the first attendence program!

so i am sitting in the corner of the waiting area, after making the deal
because i now have to go b4 the justice of the peace and plead guilty

so i am coughing and coughing
and coughing and coughing,

and i noticed that people were looking at me like i had SARS or something,
and no one was coming near me, people all moved away,

i was offened!

but hey, what can you do right??

[whodilly]

Haha... you sure you don\'t have sars? j/k

If you plead guilty, then you will have a conviction on your record and insurance will still go up.

The only way to avoid that is to get it thrown out by going to court.

[Broli]

dude how am i gonna get it thrown away!

i have like a million tickets
but what can we do!


my insurance is gonna be an ass raping next adjustment . . .
:(

You\'ll have to argue with the officer that wrote it. And your argument has to stand-up in court. Was the officer there? IF you ask to question the officer and he wasn\'t there, the charge gets thrown out.

See you on the Bus, Man! :D

TTC = Takes Time Coming

[Broli]

true

but the officer already dropped it from
87 in a 50 to 75 in a 50
so i doubt he would agree to drop it anymore

and i didn\'t know the officers would be on work to rule when i got the ticket and decided onthe first attendence
and then if i booked a court date
it would be like 9 months from now
and they would be back to regular work . . .

Shit happens, just book the court date and go. Make the officer work for his donuts. :D

Once you go to court, everything else is a piece of cake.

I fought some of my parking tickets just for starters, so I get a feel of the court and the judicial process. And got them reduced to $5 each. Hehehe.... :D
Got one ticket thrown out.

Stop Speeding so much, and getting caught. Then your rates wont skyrocket.

driving is a priveledge not a right.. if insurance won\'t teach you, maybe you will learn when you have to face the fact that you just killed someone .. :sarc

[Broli]

its not like i have speeding tickets of like
100 in a 50 or whatever

i get booked going like 20ish over the limit
once i was booked at 17 (before the reduced it)
so,

don\'t tell me you people don\'t drive 20 over the limit
cause that is bullshit!


i have just been unlucky and got caught a few times . . .
thats all!

[Candyman]

speedlimit on the streets change all the time. from 50 to 60 to 70 I think for highway 7. I see flying at like 80 to 90 on the streets all the time. I\'m actually more concerned about reckless drivers who weave in & out.

I feel for you Broli. Must be the orange that\'s catching their attention. :p

[Broli]

lol

i think ur right man!

damn!

thanks bro!

[whodilly]

I think blue dragon was telling me that he went to those xcopper type ticket fighting places and they got it dropped. sure you pay them $200 but at least you don\'t have anything on your record. And if you lose, you dont pay them.

Yep! I was going 85 in a 50. I went to a ticket fighter and they fought it off for me. I paid $200 bucks and now I still have a good record.

just be careful b/c to them a win is then getting you to plead guilty to a lesser charge - sometimes they can get you off the ticket completely.. sometimes not and you still pay their fees and then insurance.. :sarc

Fine, I wont tell you I dont do it. I do. But you can\'t cry about it. You have no one to blame but yourself. I have no pitty for this. I speed. I know I do. If I get caught you\'ll never see a post of me complaining, because I did it.

fine

i never started this thread to complain
i was commenting on the fact that people were
looking at me like i was infected with something

so relax man,
it know if i get caught speeding it is my fault
i ain\'t looking for sympathy
i ain\'t looking for nothin except to
vent a little frustration,
so calm down man!
