I got stopped by a CHP officer last Saturday morning. It was my first ticket. I was westbound on the leftmost lane of the Santa Monica freeway with my wife and daughter in the backseat. The officer was calm and nice about it. I did not argue with him. I just did what he asked me to do. Any idea how much the fine is? I still have yet to get the courtesy mail and I'm getting annoyed by the thought of paying a lot.

This may be considered excessive speed. Generally, you can expect the fine to be anywhere from $8 to $10 for every mile over the speed limit. You will difinitely benifit by going into court and pleading stupidity with the judge. But if you were actually speeding, then admit to it. Don't call the CHP a liar.

Why interior the blue hell were you going so quick firstly? change right into a buddy in an coincidence and also you necessary to get to the hospital? Are you a member of the hearth dept. and were given a call? change into your domicile on hearth? were you driving an ambulance? "I misread the 26 for a 20. Haha, pass figure." giggling remember? how are you going to mistake something like that? isn't that worry-free knowledge, or were you no longer paying interest? per chance you slept for the period of first grade math classification even as they taught numbers. I guess you've been both speaking on the rattling telephone or texting someone, weren't you?

If i'm drained or spacey, i attempt to dodge driving in any respect. in reality, after this cost ticket, i have wanting to order any sporty driving to passages outdoors the city, with the help of twisty mountain roads." Is that a reality? ninety in a sixty 5 is a "little quick"? What in case you had killed someone because you had your pud on your hand even as talking to little Susie Rottencrotch or little Billy Blueballs on the telephone? You call that courteous? I guess you under no circumstances theory about that did you? You for sure do not understand about what being a responsible driving force potential. you assert that twisty mountain roads are safer? you're an fool. you doesn't very last 10 minutes interior the authentic mountains. you opt to develop UP and picture about the plausible outcomes of your moves. i imagine the decide ought to throw the e book at you and make an party of you so others will under no circumstances even evaluate driving like a retard. And as a driving force of a huge truck I DO ought to obey the regulations of the line or I lose my license. Why ought to this brat be any diverse?

Speeding ticket is very hard to contest. Is opinion based on a fact. Law wins. You got busted, pay the fine. If you feel that the officer cited you inappropriately or for reasons other than the ones stated, that is for Civil Court. pay the fine.
If you have witnesses that will state that the officer was acting contrary to the orders issued by the State, that is a State Appeals, pay the fine.
If the officer and the State are egregious and in error, then it becomes Federal, pay the fine.
After you have exhausted all legal avenues and the Courts have thrown your case out , guess what you do?
pay the fine.

They are expensive, and I dont know how the state works but I know here if you get a ticket and you go in to contest it the best thing to do it....
Assuming you have not had a ticket in long time, explain to the judge that you havent had a ticket in a while and that you are truly sorry. You would like to know if they would consider holding the ticket for the next year and as long as you dont get a ticket that one goes away. However if you do get a ticket you will immediatly pay both.
That normally works here.

You can't contest it. You broke the law by going faster than the maximum speed allowed. To contest it, you need proof that you were NOT going faster than the speed limit.
If you can't, pay the ticket. There's no other way around.

you should have made up a phoney spanish name and told him that he was abusing your civil rights and that he had no business pulling you over and that you were going to call mayor villareconquista and demand his head on a chopping block.
i think we should all get phoney id's made with stolen social security numbers. it seems that it is acceptable to use them as if they were actualy real and nothing comes of it.
too bad you are a hard working legal citizen you will have to actualy pay for your crime of speeding.
next time get smart and be "jose cruz san pablo de rodriguez"

I've heard to find out what day the officer is off. Reschedule your court date to the officer's day off...
that might help......
