What is the name of your state? I'm licensed in MD, ticketed in VA
I was doing 82 in a 65 (anything over 80 is reckless in VA). I've never been to court period before and my parents aren't going to help me. I'm really just looking for second opinions on some questions.
#1) is it true virginia judges have no control over the point system and that is solely up to the DMV
#2) do i have to have a lawyer to speak with a prosecutor about a possible plea bargain
#3) i heard i should ask to see the maintenance record of the radar gun because they have to be calibrated every 6 months or something like that to be valid. also if i wanted to go this route would i have to plead not guilty(i know that question may be a dumb one)
#4) I was wondering, since all states have different point systems, would points in virginia effect a maryland license. In VA anything over 80 is reckless driving, but not so in maryland. I was doing less than 20 mph over and there were no other cars within at least 100 yards of me(except the unmarked cop i didn't see hiding on the service road). in maryland it wouldn't have been considered reckless driving. any ideas on how that would play out?
sorry if i'm asking a lot, i'd really appreciate any help on any one of these topics. thanks peoples
