Who here has gotten a speeding ticket and how have they handled it? Which is better, traffic school online or real traffic school?...I got a bullshit ass speeding ticket yesterday and I was wondering if the traffic school online BS is worth it or if there are any ways to reduce the consequences...I don't want a bunch of homos entering this thread to tell me that I'm crying, I want some responses from those who have actually gotten speeding violations...Thanks...PeACe

I've got so many speeding tickets i got a green slip (Restricted license). I'm only allowed to drive from 6am to 11pm - For 3 months. If i get one more speeding ticket my license is gone.

I was in Seattle last winter, and my friend got a ticket for Wreckless Driving. He went down to Tacoma and took a driving school. He had to go to court like 5 times, he was facing jail time becuase they wanted it to go to trial, but since he took the school, he got off with like a $350.00 ticket.

Cops are mad gay. They pull you over for bullshit reasons all the time and thats the straight up truth. " Oh sir you license plate light is out and I just happen to notice this in the daylight and driving by you going the opposite way"

dude, do you do anything right?
who doesn't have a speeding ticket once or twice?
i havent got one yet, but i know it's a matter of time. not that i exaggerate in my speeding, but there's just lots of control and a zero tollerance. when you drive 54 instead of 50 you have to pay.

there is 8 of us on different motorcycles too much for him to handle if anyting only one of us is gettin caught

The only ticket I've ever paid for was when I was 16... so I had to go to court with a parent, and I just paid that shit and did traffic school.... other than that I got out of every other ticket I've received... and there are ways to get out of a ticket.
Let's say you're pulled over for speeding...
Ask him how long he's had the speed trap set up for.... if he gives you any answer that doesn't deny he did in fact set up a speed trap.. then just say "did you know that speed traps and speed trap evidence are illegal?"... even if he still writes you the ticket, if you bring this up in court, your case will be dismissed... but most likely the cop will just let you go on the spot.
If the cop pulls you over for other shit that's minor (1 point violations) then just ask him if you can get off with a warning.... if he says he can't ask him for the reason (they're allowed to give warnings for 1 point violations)... once you hear the reason then just say that sounds like a quota... and that's illegal too, so same case as before... he'll let you go or your case is dismissed in court.
But... if you do end up getting the ticket... don't ever just pay up. Fight the ticket... and you know how on the bottom of the ticket it says you can have a trial in court or a trial by written declaration... go with the written one. Cops get paid to show up in court, but they don't get paid to write up their side of a case. Also... get an extension to pay... they give you 2 extra months... and by the time you send in your written declaration of what happened... the cop might not be able to remember specific details of the incidence, which means his case is invalid (if he admits that to the judge in his response).... or it's also likely that the cop won't ever even fill out the forms and write up his shit.
And if you have to take driving school.... take the online one... I did it... takes like half an hour.

Why was it bullshit? Were you not speeding?
Just take the class in person, it's not that bad.

That's not speeding. That's reckless driving, if not suicide. Are u serious about the 80/90 in 35s? I understand exaggeration, but this is to the extreme. Dude if you are serious I feel bad for the people crossing the streets that you are driving on.

It's alright, you'll get used to it...I have a few nut-riders on this board. They basically expose themselves in all of my threads.

Have you succesfuly used both of these methods in the past? He had a speed trap set, his partner was just standing way up the road with the radar-gun pointing ahead at every car passing by. I didn't know that was illegal though. What happened was I got off at the wrong exit, so I was rushing to work and got clocked in at 53 on a 35, which isn't even that bad for me...But I dunno, you think I should fight the ticket? Doesn't that take a lot, what's the process? I'm probably just gunna end up taking the online school and having to pay the fine though, but I wanted to know if there's any way I can get the penalties reduced or something...PeACe
-
I don't know how it goes over in the US, but where i'm from that doesn't even sound that bad.
I got done doing about the same speed (except in km/h) and i had to cop a $230 fine with a loss of 3 points (out of 12).
-
Well it's too late for that now... you're supposed to ask him after he pulls you over... but yeah you should fight the ticket... there's nothing to lose... if you win the case, you don't pay shit and no traffic school... if you lose, then you do what you were gonna do anyways.... go to court and say you want an extension... they'll give you a 2 month extension... then before the due date go in and pay the bail amount and tell them you want a trial by written declaration... fill that form out and send in your case... the cop will do the same, and the judge then decides... if you win you get your money back, if you lose you do traffic school.... but the dope thing with the trial by written declaration is that you can get a re-trial in court lol... the chance of the cop writing his shit after all those months is less likely than him appearing in court cuz he gets paid a couple hundred bux to go to court... he ain't gonna pass up that donut money...
-

But what are the chances I'll win if I fight it? Is it really worth going through the process if the chances that I'll win are slim to none? It's basically my word against the cops. What will my excuse be, that I wasn't speeding? How often do you think the courts get that...
PS...You didn't answer my question. Have you tried the methods? And have you succesfuly fought tickets?

If your chance is greater than 0 why wouldn't you do it? LOL
It's not like you pay more if you lose... you'll just pay the amount and do the traffic school, which you were gonna do anyways.
Yeah, it's your word against the cop's... in court that would work against you because the judge would be less willing to ridicule the cop by making him out to be a liar... but trial by written declaration the judge just compares the two statements (if the cop even sends one in). If you get the 2 month extension, there is a chance the cop might not send his in and/or he won't remember specifics, and depending on whether or not he's honest, he might report that to the judge in his report because that's what he's supposed to do (not saying much for LAPD, but you never know)
I didn't read the entire thread, so how fast were you going and what was the speed limit in that zone?
Yeah I've successfully fought tickets, and I'm actually fighting one again... I went in last month to get the extension and in a few weeks I'm gonna pay the bail amount, and then do the trial by written declaration... I've already prepared my statement so we'll see how that shit goes.

I was going 53 and the speed limit was 35...Any pointers on what to include and disclude from the statement?
-
i got caught 90 in a 70. luckily they put is as 85+ in a 70, and i only had to pay like 89 bucks or some shit. pretty chill, no traffic class either.
-
LOL... you're basically gonna have to hope that the cop doesn't send his in or that he admits he doesn't remember specifics... so make sure you get the extension, and then send it in right about when it's due... this will kill a few months lol...
You could write that someone was tailgating... or that you had just made a turn out of a residential street and there was a lot of cars coming your way so you just wanted to temporarily speed up to avoid that.... I dunno just make up some bullshit and hope he doesn't send his in.. you got nothing to lose except a few minutes to type something up.. LOL you wrote a whole essay to the dealership, you can do this
-

LOL the difference between being eligible for traffic school and doing it.... and "no traffic class" is that your shit shows up as a point on your driving record... with traffic school it doesn't...

IM surprised i havent got one yet im always over the limit.

nah, they are like open streets, but ye, i am serious. and highways, 120 baby.

Well, I'll probably give that a shot...Hopefully it turns out for the better.

IM surprised i havent got one yet im always over the limit.
yeah me too sometimes...
here we have a lot of static cameras... which local people know.. but if u stray from home territory you have to have your wits about u... about 2/3 months ago i went on holiday a couple times.. one time i was coming back from newquay (UK surf capital) in the deep south western most part of the UK about 150 odd miles on my own on ok-ish A-reads (single/sometimes dual carriageways... no motorways) and was doing around 100 mph.. luckily i have decent brakes.. and actually at second i saw the camera I wasnt sure if the road was a 40 or 50 at so i made it from 100 -> under 40 and coasted through with my brake lights off :D ... (it was a 50..) .. but alll my camping gear jumped off my rear seats and bashed into mine
the only times i've been worried that i've been caught and luckily so far gotten away with it are when i've been up all night, am hungover or both..

haha yeah around here i know where they be at, but when im going somewhere else im looking more aside the road, looking for them cameras then on the road ;D

I got done doing about the same speed (except in km/h) and i had to cop a $230 fine with a loss of 3 points (out of 12).
We only get 3 points total here. At least in Minnesota. And I'm up to 2 1/2.
I got two speeding tickets so far. The first one, I was going 80 in a 55, and the second one I was going 81 in a 55, but I had a passenger so they bumped it up to reckless endangerment which is almost a felony. It's been 2 years since then though. I'm almost in the clear. One more year and my record is clean.

Who here has gotten a speeding ticket and how have they handled it? Which is better, traffic school online or real traffic school?...I got a bullshit ass speeding ticket yesterday and I was wondering if the traffic school online BS is worth it or if there are any ways to reduce the consequences...I don't want a bunch of homos entering this thread to tell me that I'm crying, I want some responses from those who have actually gotten speeding violations...Thanks...PeACe
stop crying
