What is the name of your state? NY
Hi,
My wife recently got a speeding ticket and it's her first speeding ticket (I haven't got a ticket in my life either) so I'm seeking for some advice.
She was told to drive at 80MPH in 50 MPH zone from the officer. It happend in Bronx, NY and description of traffice infraction says Speed in zone Radar. The ticket has fine schedule on the back and according to it the fine is $90 + $50 surcharge. However it also says fine doubled for speeding in school or work zones.
First of all, I am not clear of what "speed in zone Raoar" stands for. Is it school zone or construction zone?
If so, fine doubled means double the total (90+50) * 2 = 280 or double the fine only 90*2 + 50 = 230.
If it's speeding violation in school or construction zone, are there any consequences like jail sentence? Ticket doesn't say she has to appear in person, just fine.
It sounds like not intelligent questions, but for me it's quite confusing.
Any adivce would be greatly appreciated.
