yup. I have never had a ticket due to being in the Marines.

everyone knows socal sucks to drive in dude. that is no secret.mtb0minime wrote:

Yeah your points have no merit what so ever. Your speedometer said 80, is it a calibrated and certified speedo, i doubt it, i guarantee the radar gun is more accurate than your speedo.mtb0minime wrote:
And I plan on fighting this fucker in court. Any tips/advice?
Violation: I was on the 805-N (leaving San Diego) going 83mph according to the cop. (Max is 65 since it's a freeway)
My defense: For one, I wasn't going 83, more like 80. And those 3mph make a difference. (83 ~ 85, and 85 is 20mph over the limit, which is ridiculous). My sister was also in the car with me and she can be a witness to all this. Furthermore, speed limits are there to protect people; I was not even driving remotely reckless. I was simply passing someone. It's not like I was weaving in and out of lanes and trying to speed by everyone. The average speed of the rest of the cars was probably around 75 to 80. The road was open enough for me to change lanes easily and not endanger anyone.
Thanks in advance, and if you need/want any other info, just ask and I'll try to answer.
Oh, also, the weather was clear and sunny, great conditions, dry road, perfect visibility. And it was about 1pm.
I had a guy friend who seriously tried the whole" being so upset he could cry" bit when he got pulled over...he was asked to step out of the car...lolAjax_the_Great1 wrote:
In the future you need to know how to avoid getting the ticket in the first place.
Best way is to burst into tears crying and then show some boob.
because they assume that if you're THAT upset over getting pulled over its cuz you're fucked up and think you're gonna lose your license (I watch "Cops" too often)tuckergustav wrote:

Not near as bad as 95% of Florida drivers. Women 16+ and retired men mostly.usmarine wrote:

Wanna know how the dismiss the ticket? They plead faulty equipment, you can get off with a slap on the wrist if you have a note from a garage saying your speedometer was off by so much. My friends done it..Got pulled over in his truck doing 50 in a 30. Got off because his dad said the 30 inch boggers threw the speedometer off by that much. They asked for proof..he sent them a pic and the ticket got knocked down to faulty equipment which won't go against your license.GorillaKing798 wrote:
I don't know if you have anything like this around you but we have something here called the ticket clinic. I've paid a $50 fee for them to go to court and have had all my tickets dismissed.

I actually had a breakdown the one time I've ever been pulled over for speeding. Of course it was at like 1 am and I was having a mental breakdown, hence why I was out driving at 1 am. Cop let me off with a warning.Tripulaci0n wrote:

no, but a speeding ticket and murder are not exactly the same thing, are they?jord wrote:
Paying the fine is admitting you were wrong. You wouldn't plead guilty to a murder you didn't commit, would you?
