I was traveling down a road and a cop passed me and then turned around to pull me over, and when he did I pulled down this side road that was right next to me. He gave me a ticket for speeding but on it he did not write the actual or posted speed and instead just put dashes down there? My parents want me to send it in not quilty to hopefully not get it on my record. What should I do?

Whoops! Quilty = Guilty :-)

Do the not guilty. If you win you save money both on the fine and with insurance. You can't win if you don't try.

Yeah, this is a no-brainer. If you went to court for this, the cop would look pretty silly trying to read your speed from his notes when it wasn't on the ticket! And if you hired a traffic attorney, his first question would be, "Now, can you explain why you would were unwilling to put the defendant's speed down on the ticket?"
Please. Check the Not Guilty box for the sake of our sanity, if nothing else. If you don't, you definitely DESERVE the fine and points.

♥ I think that actually is required for a ticket or you can plead not guilty and they can't do anything about it. My suggestion is to send in not guilty with a copy of the ticket and circle where there is not posted speed limit and no speed limit for you either. Good Luck!

rushing is rushing. era. Did your vehicle at each time exceed the optimal published speed shrink. If sure, then how are you able to declare you at the instant are not accountable? The excuse you sped to bypass isn't suited. people seem to think of it extremely is okay. Its no longer. Why no longer decelerate and merge in? besides, you technically do no longer belong traveling interior the left lane besides, different than to bypass. Thats the regulation in maximum states. additionally, signs and warning signs for lane endings on significant highways are in many cases published lots added than a hundred ft. lots added. Like upwards of a mile and then various periods. The hundred foot mark is for the final clueless people who insist on driving interior the left lane until the final 2nd. The cop in all probability patrols that highway in many cases and thats his puppy peeve. people who stay interior the lane til the final 2nd, then roar only before all people else. some suggestion... do no longer use this tale in courtroom. Judges like it whilst the guy admits to breaking the regulation of their tale attempting to justify why they the place doing in spite of that's that they have got been given ticketed for. Its honestly style of humorous to computer screen people admit, under oath, that they did what they're attempting to declare they did no longer do. shop you funds. Your going to be stumbled on accountable and could pay an excellent. Sorry...

it's very possible that the officer wrote your speed along with other notes on the back of the hard copy of the citation. This is very common. Not putting the speed on the front of the citation isn't going to get your case thrown out.

That was the first time I had a good laugh today! Thanks! Haha, Not Quilty might be the -erm- undoubtable best answer to sent back.
On the other hand, I would say your parents are right. At least you can try it!

yes, if this cop reviews his notes the day before he is to go to court he probably won't show to spare himself the embarassment.
If nothing else,the other cops there will see nim humiliated and he will be harassed for a good long time at the stationhouse.
This is your game to lose. All you have to do is play it through.
