What is the name of your state? violation occured in georgia
i got a speeding ticket and the officer actually stated to me that he clocked me at 81 but on the ticket he only wrote 70. can this be used to get out of the ticket? because if we go to court, as i think i understand it the ticket is an affadivit and liek evidence, but he cannot under oath say i was going 70 and if he says under oath i was going 81, would that be considered a procedural error?(i thought it a little odd that the officer told me to keep the needle on the left side of 70 and nobody will bother me too)
also if i chose to go the route of getting the radar make and model with calibration information can i just go to the station and request them or do i actually have to do a subpuena to get that information?(reapair history, calibration, officer training, FCC license, frequency, and officer ticket log.)
Also, in geogia after the ticket is written does the officer have any say in if it can be thrown out. i have heard of people that go talk to the officer that issued the ticket to plead their case or write a letter to the officer to plead their case. is this a good or bad idea? and does the officer have any say to throw it out once it is written?
i believe he cited me for violation 40-6-181, but when i looked up that code online, it is very simple and not really informative. and if i did take it to a trial dont you have to have the prosecutor prove you were the one driving among other things(what all would the prosecutor have to prove beyond a reasonable doubt for me to be consdered guilty.
thanks for any help.
