Default First ticket in the WS6

Anyone know of a good traffic attorney in the kingwood/houston area? I supposedly got stopped for going 54 in a 35, but I know I was going 36-37. I looked at my speedo right when I saw him to make sure I wasn't speeding. I don't remember when my last speeding ticket was, so I don't think I can take defensive driving. So gimme those traffic attorney names!

I was freaking out because my parents said "We're taking away your car if you get a speeding ticket". So nope.

take it to court of course, and you can also do defensive driving once a year.

you can also ask to see when the gun was last calibrated. they should do it once a month..

^^ dont quote me on that i read it from another forum.

David sprecher...anyone in houston will tell you the same. I would just take defensive driving though. It will cost you like 115 fee, then 25 to take the course. Better watch out, they send you a lot of **** in the mail when you get tickets.

Sprecher has gotten me out of 15 of my 16 tickets. Only thing i've ever been convicted of was disturbing the peace.

i was always told they have to show you if you request it, also the date for the radar calibration because it has to be done every couple months or something

I thought this was settled in another thread that you have the right to see the gun?
