What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Nevada
Although this is a federal violation on federal land. Speeding 45 in a 25 mile per hour zone. Violation 36 CFR 4.21 (c). The fine is $425!!!!! After reviewing online sources I have found the Assimilitave Crimes Act, which as I read it, means the feds cannot charge more than local jurisdiction. In Las Vegas, speeding up to 20 miles per hour over speed limit is $205 on first offense. Is this a good argument to get the penalty reduced? Further, the officer did not even ask me to sign the citation. Inept? Incompetent? If he can't even follow this basic SOP, can he actually read a speedometer?
