sup everyone.
i just got a ticket on new braddock road afterschool
i was going 65 on 45road. he told me that it's not reckless but just speeding ticket...(under describe charge, i see speed 65/45 laser...so it's not reckless(?))
i am 19 years old and never had ticket/accident in my life.
any comments and help...?
i am so lost at the moment...parents dont know about it now...HELP!

 

its okay...but they will probably know when the insurance premium increases

 

Isn't 20mph over or 80+mph in VA reckless?

 

uh oh! Someone is in trouble!! Well your insurance will increase and you will have to most likely do traffic school.

 

Go to court, plead guilty with explanation and hopefully judge will just make you pay fine and you will not get any points. Explain that you are a student and can not afford an increased insurance premium. Don't forget to tell them you have a clean record, would like to keep it that way and you will be much more careful in the future. Good luck.

 

Damn that sucks sorry to hear Kevin. Gotta slow it down. Good luck.

What does ;;; mean in your heading though? o_O?o_O?o_O?o_O?o_O?o_O?o_O?o_O?o_O?o_O?o_O?o_O?o_ O?o_O?o_O?o_O?o_O?o_O?o_O?o_O?

 

officer told me it's not reckless but just speeding ticket...
never had accident, never had ticket, clean record until today...
do you think it's worth getting lawyer?
i cant afford to take it...:/

 

i am done w/ this speeding thing.
yesterday my bro got really mad at me for being late after doctor's appointment, which i have almost everyday.
i was in rush and i got caught...(cry)

 

I'd spend a day in court. If he gets lucky and gets an easy going judge that see that he has no prior history, he might have the option of taking the driver's education to reduce the points. However, given the 20 mph over, realistically I don't see how any judge will come out and let him off the hook that easy. I don't know about all counties in VA but in Prince Williams county courts, you aren't really given the chance to explain your case. It's either plead not guilty and come back with a lawyer on another date or plead guilty and hope for the best. The only other option is to wait for your turn and tell the judge you'd like to talk to the prosecuting attorney and see if he's willing to reduce the ticket and recommended driver's education to the judge. If the ticket is a few hundred dollars, I'd be very willing to hire a lawyer for that amount. I've witness a few cases with 15+ mph over tickets and those with lawyers got it reduced to driving education and small fines. With the court systems now, everyone is buddy buddy and the judges know the lawyers and willing to cut them (rather than you) a break.

 

sorry to hear that. its not a big deal, tickets are innevitable. its normal to be o_O.

 

OK, here is what you do.......
1) Go to court
2) Dress like a thug
3) When the judge asks How do you plea.....Tell him F YOU!!
4) The judge will get mad, tell him to F his mother
5) Judge gets madder and holds you in contempt, totally forgets about the stupid ticket has you thrown in jail for the weekend, and your record stays clean!!!


Or just plead guilty and hope for a merciful judge!

 

^ surprisingly Devons first option has 90% chance of working


but dont do it ...take the 2nd

 

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA Did you have a radar detector

 

Kevin, I've been in your situation... the good thing about first time offenders is that you can plead guilty, you will do the driving class and if you manage to keep your record clean for 3 months after the driving class, the points wont go on your record, therefore, your insurance wont go up. But make sure you dont be stupid like myself and get another ticket any time soon.... especially now with so many cops around, slow it down and dont be in a hurry. Good Luck. Go to court, plead guilty...tell them its your first offense and you are extremely sorry, unless you are willing to spend $$$ on a lawyer... then its a total different story.

 

^^ he has dough heheheh
