Got my first ticket.

Havent even had the cl for 2 weeks and i got my first ticket already, but i have been driving for like a year and a half w/o being pulled over.

Heres a summed up version of the story:

At my cousins wedding and we are leaving and my parents are telling me and my brothers to go home now and they are gonna leave in 30 min. I get pulled over doin 93 in a 65 on 696 west and the first thing that comes to my mind is that i have to deal w/ this quick so my parents wont see me on their way back home. But i guess they left early and they saw me on the side of the highway. My dad was when i got home, i thought he was gonna take the cl away but he says i cant go out for a month and gotta pay the ticket.

But anyways i was hit my laser doin 93 from a cop on a over pass then he alerted a cop hiding on the entrance to pull me over.

Since this was my first ticket the cop says i just gotta pay $115 and i'll get no points. I asked him to gimmie a warning but he says if your goin over 90 he has to give me a ticket. He wrote the ticket has a 90 in a 65 cause i told him iwasnt doing 93, i think if i didnt lie to him he would of wrote it as a 80 or 85.

But any ways i hope i learned my lesson, but my friends are telling me that the cop was bs'n me bout no points and that i'll get like 4 points when i go to court

what city?
Farmington hills?
everyone speeds on 696 between telergraph and 275.
good luck. if the judge or majestrate gives u points ask to be put under advisement. if that doent work appeal the decision, try ur hardest to keep ur clean record. most cities let u go if u have a clean record, but once u get ur first ticket they have little leaneincy.
90 in a 65 is tough ur probably gonna get points.

there's something going around saying Congress or some gov't body mandated that radar detector companies make a weaker detector starting in about 2 months to give cops more of a chance to nail people
