NY unlawful speedometer?

[macmandan]

What is the name of your state? NY
i recently (yesterday) got pulled over for going 77 in a 55, and told the officer my speedometer didn't work, which it doesn't. he told me he believed me, and gave me a ticket for unlawful speedometer.
I take it this ticket is no points non moving?
and how easy will this ticket be to get rid of, or what is the fine?

Unlawful speedometer

I, too am fighting this charge.
Officer first said I was speeding then admittted I was right, but wrote unlawful speedometer instead.

I am due in court Monday with a clean record.

Any advice on fighting this?

Firstly, you should start your own thread instead of posting your question on a thread over a year old. Secondly, the only way to beat an unlawful speedometer ticket is to prove that your speedometer is lawful.

Have a shop fix the speedometer and bring a receipt to court with you.
