beat a speeding ticket in cali
 
last week, i went out to go see my homeboy out in lancaster(LA county) for his bday. afterwards, i went to go see some relatives in sacramento and the bay area. well, along the way i got a speeding ticket going down the I-5. it was in central cali where there isn't ---- but ------- farms and cows and ----. ----------ers caught me doing 104 mph :-X . so the highwaypatrolman wrote me the ticket and told me that because i was going over 100mph, i have to appear before a california court, and that i couldn't just pay the ticket.

now, before you guys all jump on me and ask "what the ---- were you doing going that fast?," realize that i was in the middle of NOWHERE. anybody who has taken a trip from socal to norcal can vouch for this. not only that, the speed limit is 70 mph, but even the truck drivers are doing 80+ mph.

does anybody in cali know of a good place to help beat speeding tickets? otherwise im expecting to pay around a $1000 fine and have my license revoked.

There is no place that I know of where you can "beat" a ticket.If he got you on radar just start lubeing up now.Remember this state is almost baknrupt so they need all the money they can get.

$350 is still cheaper than $1000, plus hopefully my driving record will stay clean. :-\

if youre going to speed make sure that you are
1.faster than the cops
2.can out handle the cops
3. know where you are going
i think those rules go for anytime you want to break the law

I got a lawyer for my "2nd degree negligent" and I got off with one year probation. If I don't get any other tickets it will go off my record like nothing happend. I also had to go to trafic school (on line) he he what a joke that is. Anyway try to get a lawyer, they know the district attornies and a lot of times they will cut you a deal. 98ctr

EVERYTHING you need to know how to get out of a ticket in california www.ticketassassin.com

Re:beat a speeding ticket in cali
 

Even if you contest your citation and lose, the judge will usually allow you to attend traffic school.
that is off of ticketassassin's website. So if you contest your citation you have a chance of losing your privilege to take traffic school? It seems that this quote is implying that the judge can deny you traffic school, thus leaving you fucked. Can someone elaborate on this if they have the knowledge.

I got a "drag racing on public highway" ticket. It was $90 and 4 points on my recond ( driving school not optional ).

I couldn't afford the points so I took it to court in hopes of getting a larger fine in exchange for less points on my record...
Results ??
Pay $180 court cost
Pay $90 ticket
manditory 12-hours driving school
AND the 4 points on my record !!!

Got a ticket for doing 95 in a 55.. Cop wrote $180 fine, and went to pay it, and they said " $280 please", so I took it to court. Result ??

Judge says " ok fine reduced to $180, plus $100 court fee" !!!

I'll just pay my fine and take the points !!! Not only did I get the shaft in both cases, but its a major PITA to go and sit in a ------- court house for 3 hours...
POS mother fuckers !!!

Side note, both cases I was undoubtly guilty....

^see all the more reason for me to be concerned about that quote. I have a stupid ticket (unsafe left turn) and I want to fight it cause I don't want to waste traffic school on such a silly ticket, but I would rather pay the 2bills than be fucked like hunchback (sorry bruh).

Well since the ticket I'm assuming falls under reckless driving which I have 2 of in california you must appear in court. I was handed 2 points on my record and no chance of traffic school for both times. Fine was orginally like 900 but the judge lowered it too 300 or so if I remember right becasue I pleaded guilty without an argument. 5 is a trap got a ticket doin the same trip I'm from the Lancaster area and was driving up to Sacramento. Mostly likely will get points, no traffic school and a fine in my range if the judge isnt to ----.

GET YOUR ASS A LAWYER

Re:beat a speeding ticket in cali
 
Well first off make sure you even have to go to court, he could just be ------ with you cuz cops dont know ---- when it come to court. I got a ticket and it was a bitch CHP and she was telling me my courtday...it wasnt even the right date, so dont listen to them. Second Cali has a 3 strikes law so if they allow you take traffic school and then it cleans the point off your record. good luck :-\
