SO a bitch! picked up a speeding ticket for allegedly doing 55 in a 40 here in Nac.

However, I think I saw a speed limit sign right before where I got pulled over saying that it was a 45mph zone. On the ticket it states in a 40 zone

Do I have a case for dismissal? What should I do if I do, thanks to whoever posts up that knows the law

Best advice....get a lawyer. I received five tickets in one year and not one of them is on my record so my insurance was never notified! I will never pay another ticket, lawyers are something else!

Best advise your going to get, pay the attorney not the ticket/insurance increase. Just call around and see about who is good in Nackanowere

Well in this situation you might be trying to fight an uphill battle with the law. In rural and urban area there are many speed zones that indicate posted speeds but they do not state the distance between them. For instance you can be travelling on a roadway that states 45mph and 2 minutes later the speed can drop back down to 35mph without notice. Im not sure how fast you were going but in ur post you stated that the ticket stated 40mph instead of 45mph. You can hire an attorney to ask about the calibration of his Radar equipment but the Supreme Court also ruled that an officer does not have to be radar certified to operate Radar equipment. Also an officer can explain in his probable cause affidavit on the back of his copy that he observed you traveling at an unsafe speed meaning (prima facia evidence indicating speed that is more than reasonable and prudent) With that he can write you a speeding ticket even without using radar. I know it sounds crazy but thats what the traffic law states. Four options
1. hire an attorney
2. Plea guilty and have it on ur driving record
3 Plea not guilty and have trial by judge or jury and hopefully the officer will fail to appear.
4. plea no contest and have the option to pay or take defensive driving. and only the defensive driving will appear on your record and not the ticket charge

hope this helps

What ever you do, do not give the cop the satisfaction that you had to pay the ticket. Most cops are ******** and need to find something productive to do.

Hey bud, I know you said money is tight right now and boy do I know how that goes but listen do what you can to get a lawyer because you just pay these tickets and they go on your insurance you will be paying out on a monthly basis. Know what I mean?
