$363 Ticket

This is a simple but costly story. I was driving to work on a back road, going about 60, just cruising. I go over this hill, and I usually slow down just in case there is a cop, so I downshift, and I decide to give it some gas instead of slowing down, of course there is a cop. Got me for 75 in a 45 zone. 30 over. $233. In Nj, if you pay $130 on top of the ticket, they will make the points go away, but theres a limit on how many times you can do that. This sucks!!!!

Of course you can "plea bargain." Here in Kansas, once a year, you can pay double the t
raffic citation and leave the courthouse with an expensive parking ticket. I would try to keep this off your record if you can.

That sux man! I got a 50 in a 25 residential zone...was only $250...Here in La, they give you the option to go to a damn saturday defensive driving course that erases it off your record. Catch is, you can only do this once every couple of years.
