What is the name of your state? MA
Hi,
2 days back I was caught speeding and officer told me, he got me at 94. He asked me what speed I was? I told him may be at 80(as it was a down hill).
It is my first ever speeding ticket in 4 years of driving history.
And the remarks he wrote were:
RL alone "80" 94 Locked, "Wet roadway Heavy Spray"
Before writing the ticket, he also collected toll ticket along with license and rental agreement. I didn't stop any where else after I entered the turnpike (I didn't look on toll ticket whether any time was printed there) that might have enabled for him to calculate the average speed and noted some other notes I don't know about it.
The township where he caught was 8 hrs drive from my place, it will be difficult for me to attend court in person. And I also have a doubt whether the ticket can be reduced any further than the 80( as myself have said I was on 80).
Can you please advise me on what my options are.
1) Should I plead guilty or Contest?
2)If I contest is it possible to take out the speeding ticket? or atleast can it be reduced to 80?
Appreciate your suggestions.
Thanks for any Info,
Rav
