What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? New York
I will explain everything to you any advice would be appreciated.
Okay so this is the first time i ever got pulled over. It happened last week on Friday in the morning at like 4am and there were no other cars. I got pulled over on the highway I-90. The speed limit was 55mph and i was going 82. When he pulled me over he said i was going 82 on a 55 and why i was driving so fast and i said i didn't even realize i was going so fast. Then he told me to step out of the car and saw the x'es on my hands so he realized i was coming back from a club so he tested me to see if i was drinking. Then i got back in the car and after a few minutes he came back with 2 tickets. One for speeding and one for changing lanes with no signals. He provided me with a supporting deposition for both tickets. The one is SPEEDING (Gen 101) and the other one is GENERAL (Gen 101 A). They show everything like information about my car and what direction i was going and where i got pulled over. They are both based on officers direct observation and the speeding is verified by a radar stalker dual.
For additional information it says SUBJECT WAS STOPPED FOR 82 IN A POSTED 55 MPH ZONE VISUAL EST 80 REAR RADAR ANTENNA 82 - SHOULDER 423 EAST SAME LANE 82
and for the no signal one it says SUBJECT WENT FROM LEFT LANE TO THE MIDDLE LANE, BACK TO LEFT THEN MIDDLE, NO SIGNAL WHILE TRAVELING 82MPH IN A 55.
I don't know what to do but i will plead not guilty because i cant afford to pay the full amount for those tickets; i don't know how much exactly it would be but it should be like $300 for the speeding and like $100 for no signals.
Please tell me what to do and what to say at the trial because this is my first time and i don't know what to do.
I am 18 years old and I've had my license for like a little more than a year.
