What's your defense?Hello, I was cited for 75 in a 65. What do you think is my best course of action? Should I just plead guilty and pay the fine, or should I try to fight it? I have a GA license. I would appreciate any responses.
I would suspect that given you're several states away and you haven't indicated anything sounding like a defense, that it would be cheaper to pay the fine rahter than appearing (or having an attorney appear). New York doesn't have anything along the line's of Georgia's Nolo, so your case is going to be heard on the merits (i.e., you're sure to lose).Hello, I was cited for 75 in a 65.

Ok, thanks. I don't have much of a defense seeing as the officer already 'reduced' the charge. I will plead guilty and pay the fine but is there a chance that my license might be suspended?

The only way your license will be suspended is if you fail to answer the ticket or fail to pay the fine once you enter a guilty plea.Ok, thanks.

Most likely he won't get caught until renewal time.The only way your license will be suspended is if you fail to answer the ticket or fail to pay the fine once you enter a guilty plea.
Not sure what you mean by that.Most likely he won't get caught until renewal time.
What I mean by that is that Georgia won't actively pursue a suspension just because NY marks him ineligible in the NDR. They will however refrain from allowing him to renew. Georgia isn't a compact state.Not sure what you mean by that.
If he fails to answer/pay then NY DMV will suspend his driving privilege in NY. A few months later, if the situation isn't resolved, NY DMV will notifiy GA DMV and his GA license will be suspended until the NY issue is taken care of.
Got it.What I mean by that is that Georgia won't actively pursue a suspension just because NY marks him ineligible in the NDR. They will however refrain from allowing him to renew. Georgia isn't a compact state.
