if u go over 10 mph over the speed limit u still get a speeding ticket?

 

If its in a school zone, yes.

 

depends on the area/cop. highway you can get away with 75 all day around me. but inner city, especially school/work zones, 45 in a 35 could be pushin it.

 

What in the world is this?? I just got a ticket last night written for 80mph in a 60mph zone. I've talked to lawyers all day, and they have never mentioned anything like this. Can someone give me some more info please!! If I don't get this ticket off my record, I won't be able to afford insurance anymore

 

That is BS is what it is. I tried calling some of those places, they all just try to offer you lawyer services...its dumb.

 

i find that 5 to 7 is usually allowed unless the cop is a dick... anything over that and you are not doing well... over 10 they get in your booty, 8 or 9 and it always gets dropped in court to something less important. the highway you can get 9 or so... go get a radar detector... that also helps you out quite a bit

 

I believe that. I knew it had to be BS. My ticket was actually written for 80mph in a 65mph zone. But on the cops "notes" on the tickets, he circled 88 because that's what he clocked me at. So he dropped it 8mph....and I just need it dropped 1 more mph to not go on my record or insurance. Do you think the court will drop it 1mph if I take it to trial?

 

Tickets suck! I got my first a few weeks ago and now I have to go to trial next week. But I guess when you get radared at 103 in a 55 youre gonna have that. Just sucks because I was out in the middle of nowhere with nothing but farm land and stuff. Never expected a state cop to be hiding back on this dirt road.....Anyway, good luck man...

 

If you are good with soldering splice a wire between speed sensor
and instrument cluster and install a YellowBox. ($100) It will divide a pulse frequency (adjustable) so speedometer will show 45 while in fact you do 60.
Have a shop with a 4wheel dyno give you a written speedometer test resuls (another $100) . Take it to court and motion the judge to amend the charge to "broken speedometer". $25 ticket and NO points.

 

same thing happened to me a week ago! got pulled over because i was "speeding" on a school zone. the cop was like 5 cars behind me i was the 3rd car on the street. i was about to take a right at a apt. complex and he nailed me. Gave me the crap that I am lucky that he will not give me a ticked for my illegal tail lights and exhaust witch ofcourse are stock. We do get singled out! Oh well. am gonna fight my ticked!

 

nut where did you get rolled at? I 395? or just around town?
