Five-O Well i'm not sure where i am spposed to postthis since the racers lounge is closed and i figured this wouldn't get any response over here. alright here's my situation. pulling out of a gas station that has one of the nicer car washes and of course where the washed cars pull out is wet. so i'm leaving and someone is about to cut me off so i give it a little to get out of the way and they spin a little and when they hit the dry pavement they squealed a little just a half second chirp no marks or anything. so i pull out of the station and look back and i've got a sheriff on my ***. pull over give him the usual. first time i've been pulled over. so i'm sitting in my car and then another sheriff blocks me in from the front WTF. Then the sheriff that pulls me over proceeds to give me a ticket for reckless operation. This is the first time i've been pulled over so i figured i'd get off with a warning since i didn't do anything really wrong. Any advice on how to get out of this. Thanks guys

Go to court, they usually don't even bother showing up to argue with you. Go to the car wash and take pictures for the judge. Just make a case for yourself and it will get tossed... Will take an hour or two out of your life though, your call on that or paying the ticket. Would it affect your insurance?

i got nailed on the interstate by a freakin airplane for doin 86 and i wasnt even passing traffic, people were passin me..i could have payed 30 bucks for the 4 hour drivers corse and had the points taken off and no ins. raise.... pay 170 bucks for the ticket instead of like 190....but i took it to court and had to pay a lawyer 150 bucks who promised to settle in my behafe or no charge, 130 somethin for court costs 90 bucks for the judge ordered advanced drivers course (which was 8 hours by the way), and adjunction was with held ......so i spent almost 400 bucks and 8 hours of my time instead of 200 and 4 hours... i got screwed, and the dick lawyer said he settled in my favor cause there were no points issued, which i could have done in half the time and money with the 4 hour coarse....so be careful w/ these get out of a ticket scams (most lawyers are conmen with a degree)....
and i think you should have got a warning but i wasnt there so......
