Hi all. This is my first time to your site and it has been very informative. I would to thank those in advance that help me out as well as apologize because it is a bit long. I have a few questions about what I should do...
I got my first speeding ticket in January, an officer clocked me on radar going 36 in a 25. It is indicated that he used radar, and that comment is followed by something that looks like a little arrow pointing downwards and the number 45 is circled. Also, in the corner, is the date April 04, 05 - what are these comments exactly?
About 5 years ago, I was stopped for wreckless driving, which I was not convicted of since the officer didn't show up for court 2 times and the case was dismissed. At the time, my DMV record stated that I had +6 points on my license. Should I be worried about my insurance rates and my driving record?
Should I go to court or send my payment in? After observing court for the reckless driving charge as well as attending court with others, I have seen many judges reduce the fines. I have to pay $54 in court fees, so I figure I might as well show up and get my money's worth {grin.} At worst, I have to pay $112, at best, I may be able to get it reduced by maybe $10-$20 which isn't too much to a lot of people but for me it is...
I have yet to recieve a copy of the summons in the mail and it is 10 days to court. My address is correct on both the summons and my license...Does this matter? The reason I ask is because my signature is not present anywhere on my copy, but I know it is on the officer's. He apparently tore off my copy before I signed. Does this make a difference?
Also, if I do go to court, should I plead guilty or no contest? Should I try to discredit the officer by asking questions such as the color of my car or what I was wearing, make him search his memory for me? I just don't know what to do! I know a speeding ticket is not the end of the world, but I am still upset with myself for getting one. Any advice?
