Hey fellow TsX'ers im a little bummed out right no. I just got my first speeding ticket tonight. He said i was doing 67 in a 45 and then he reduced it to 54 in a 45. I know for sure i was doing only 5 over. Its what i always drive. I havent got a ticket ever. Its for 80 dollars.
Everyone thinks i should pay it and just do the driving school even though i have witnesses saying i wasnt doing but 50. He caught me ona Golden Eagle Radar model E4648 and i think he was driving toward me ona 1 lane road but i could be mistaken. Anyways, i really dont want it on my insurance and my rents would kill me. Does anyone know what i should do and whether or not driving school will remove it from my record and insurance.
Also, how can i fight it in court. All i have is my word, he has some radar. Thanks, help much appreciated .

If you want to fight it (which will take you time) ask him when is the last time he calibrated his radar.
If you're going to accept it, pay the $80, then pay the $29 for the traffic school. It won't appear on your record. Just don't get another ticket for another 18 months.

Feel free to repost it there, but I'm going to close this one up.
