Fighting Traffic Tickets Advice
Nothing can interrupt your driving excitement like a traffic ticket. Since I love to drive…fast that is, the general problem with it is called speeding tickets. I hate speeding tickets! That’s why I pay much attention to how to fight speeding tickets.
I know I am not the only one who has gotten one of these “infractions.” They are unfair for the most part. Like once I was taking on a road trip with my friend and I got pulled over for going 65 in a 30mph zone. There was no reduced speed limit warning coming off the freeway on the Oregon Coast. You need some knowledge on how to fight traffic tickets to handle this.
Obviously this did not matter to the cop who pulled me over. I cannot even begin to tell you how annoyed I get too when they ask why they pulled you over. I think they get enjoyment out of asking that stupid little phrase. Apparently they have to ask you this to get you to confess to your “crime.” It is not a crime! If you weren’t meant to speed then why do they make cars that go faster than the average speed limit? I tell you it is a government conspiracy! They force you to learn fight traffic tickets.
You know what else I hate about speeding tickets? Contesting them; not only does it take time out of your day it is usually at the most inconvenient time like during work hours. How much sense does it make? It is like a double whammy because your $100.00 ticket has now turned into a $200.00 ticket because you missed a day of work. We gotta stick it to the man and fight speeding tickets!
True story; I got off with a warning for going 90mph in a 30mph zone, passing on a double yellow in front of on coming traffic, which just so happened to be a green cop car, in a car registered in California, a drivers license issued in Washington and insurance in Arizona. I suppose if you are women and are lucky enough to get pulled over by a man, your have a better chance of getting just a warning then an actual ticket.
Now I was all dolled up at the time, which I thought influenced the cop’s decision to let me off the hook. However I am going to have to say that the cop could not prove I was speeding because it would be pretty hard to gauge my actual speed even if the cop caught me by radar since I was coming towards him. So there is a reason I got off with such obvious violations.
Thank goodness I got lucky that time, but other times, I have been not so lucky. Anyways I found this book on contesting speeding tickets; which is really good because now I know that bikinis will not really get you out of a ticket and now I know how to get my traffic tickets reduced if not completely thrown out!
This defiantly beats the alternative called driving school which inevitably reduces you to ranks of elementary understandings of the color yellow meaning caution. My driving record is not exactly clean and my insurance is costing me a fortune so let me put it to you this way. I have trouble obeying the laws when it comes to my enjoyment.
Obviously to avoid speeding tickets you probably should not speed, but 1. I cannot stand being behind some old man with an oxygen tank in the back of his car; and 2. Most speed limits are too slow. I got a speeding ticket in an alley once for going 10 mph. Gimmi a break! My Grandma can walk faster than that.
In short, contesting the infamous speeding ticket is easy if you know where to find the information you need to beat it.
