108 mph speeding ticket in barstow.

[PLEASEDONTKILL]

What is the name of your state? CA
Ok i was driving to vegas and like all the other idiots i was speeding. My wife needed to use the restroom and from my knowledge i was traveling from about 85-90. until i reached the peak of the hill. short story at the bottom was a chp and he apperantly clocked me at 108mph. the guy was rude like most men in power are. and started shouting at me i just sign the ticket to get over it. i dont travel that fast i am sure its the first time i hit 100. i drive a jeep that feels forced at 80 mph but that day i was driving my wifes lexus is and i can tell you right now that 100 doesnt feel must faster than 60. ofcoarse this was my carelessness (is that a word?) well i thought i would get a bail amount but i got a mandatory to appear in court notice. anyways what am i looking at? i hear its 2500 plus one month suspended license which is a big problem for me i need to drive in order to work. i have received 3 tickets! in my life this one, a left turn ticket about 2 years ago and a speeding ticket about 4-5 years ago. what am i looking at here?

"Most"? In my experience (and I venture to guess I know far more officers and "men in power" than you do) those that are rude or overly officious are a minority.

It's one thing to be curt and officious, and another thing entirely to be rude.

anyways what am i looking at? i hear its 2500 plus one month suspended license which is a big problem for me i need to drive in order to work. i have received 3 tickets! in my life this one, a left turn ticket about 2 years ago and a speeding ticket about 4-5 years ago. what am i looking at here?

What was the specific violation you were cited for?

If it was for CVC 22348(b), the fine and fees should be about $760 according to the 2007 CA Uniform Bail and Fee Schedule.
