Speeding 31km/h over speed limit, what to do?

[ultimatum]

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Outside U.S.

Hey guys,

I'm from Canada (Ontario) actually. This summer in august I received a ticket 31KM/h over the speed limit (50KM/h). The officer came up asked for my license, left, came back after 10 minutes, gave me a ticket saying I could pay or show up to the court and try getting the fine reduced. My fine was $224 and 4 points. This is my first ticket 'cause I usually drive according to speed limit.

Now, I don't mind paying the fine, but I don't want the 4 points on my driving record. Is there anything I can do in the court to get the points off? My court is on August of 2009. Thanks in advance.

Sorry, but this site is for US law only. We don't know Canadian laws here, and any attempt from us to help you would likely involve the use of Google, so you should go ahead and just do that yourself.

Hell, we don't even know how fast a KM/H is

Is that a joke? Did you go to school? or do you not have cars imported from other countries?

I'm guessing your knowledge ends on the U.S. border!

===================================

Laws are different in every country, but court actions are pretty much the same. General information or advice to approaching this situation would be appreciated.

Note: It would be wise to put the country constraint in the title of the website.

By that logic, I could look up some information on what you should do in court in Afghanistan if you want.

Okay. A general answer that applies to both countries would be 'ask the court to not give you four points'.

The "Only US Law" statement in the text box should have been a pretty good clue.

Here's a link to the laws and statutes of Canada.

We do, yet the speedometers on those vehicles still display speeds in mph!

As far as not realizing this site is for the US, most countries outside of the US do not utilize a ".com" extension.

And I'm sure, as you have clearly demonstrated here... your lack of knowlege doesn't end there!

Aye!
