What is the name of your state? P.A.
yea its been 3 days and i still havnt really slept. but anyway....
I recieved 3 tickets the speeding ticket, a careless driving ticket, and a traveling at safe speed ticket, grand total of around 400$. I recently recieved my senior license early for no violations or offenses. My questions are these since ive searched the web and found nothing (the cop wasnt very informative at all)...
1. it says in the PA handbook that 31+ mph over i recieve 5 points and a departmental hearing and sanctions provided under 1538(d)
what does the hearing/sanctions mean??
2. I know with my junior licence anything over 26mph was an automatic suspention, but i cant find anything anywhere about a senior license suspention for excesive speeds?
3. Im gonna plead not guilty i think mainly because at the very least itll give me untill the court date to cough up the 400$ BUT since this is my first offence, do you think there is a chance of reducing points/fines?
4. also when the cop stopped me at first he pulled up next to me and asked if a car passed (me thinking he knew i was the one speeding) i said i didnt know, he then put the car in reverse and pulled in behind me. He didnt relaize at first that i was one on his radar, could that be used to any affect in court? I never admited to going that fast just gave the speil *i wasnt paying attention, didnt know, ect.* so i would sorta admiting to speeding but argue i wasnt going that fast cause he cant prove it?
really any help/suggestions would help
thanks
