What is the name of your state? DC
I am a resident of DC and got my first speeding ticket in Fairfax County, VA. Tomorrow is my court date. I understand that the officer gave me a break by writing a speeding ticket instead of a misdemeanor for reckless driving, which is speeding over 20 miles above the posted speed limit. I would like to contest the charge, because I am concerned with the points. I honestly don't know how fast I was going, because I was lost looking for the interstate when he stopped me. He had just stopped another driver just before me. I did mention to him that I was lost. The officer wrote radar on the ticket. What is the best strategy to avoid points assessed on my DC license? Should I plea not guilty and ask for the callibration sheet?
