Got a fucking ticket in Wisconsin
 
So Saturday night at about 1:00 some friends and I decided to drive from Chicago to Minnesota for the bears vikings game which sucked. So anyway zero sleep and about 23 hours later on the way back I got a speeding ticket. 78 in a 65. Any suggestions on how to not get this put on my record. I really don't want my damn insurance to go up. The cop said they don't do supervision or traffic school or anything like that which we do in IL.

Tell the insurance company that the ticket was photoshopped by the police :6 Feel free to thank me later for this awesome advice

^^ yep

Not much you can do other than go to court and hope for the best, but I doubt you'd want to do that based on your location.

Just pay it, nothing else you can do.

So similar thing happend to me in NY and i live in VA, long story short i didnt pay it and they suspended my licese and let me know via mail. well NY suspended it not VA so when i called the DMV they said I was cool, just was not licensed to drive in NY nor could i apply for one in NY.

Might wanna look and see if the states Xfer DMV records back and forth, cause from what i was told by VA DMV if I just never paid it i just couldn't get a license in NY.

Always the chance that DMV worker didnt know ---- from shinola but I just paid it none the less so ...

yeah no traffic school or ---- like that, also the cop will NOT be at the court date. you can go to the court date and asked to get it reduced though.
my brother got an 82 in a 55 and got it reduced down to a broken speedo, just go to the part store, buy the vss/whatever and keep the receipt and then take it back. go to court w receipt and bill from mechanic buddy who "fixed it", and you should get it reduced or dropped altogether.

i also got a 19 over in a 35 and got it reduced from 180+6points down to 160+0points, no points no worries

Hmmm I did tell him I that I thought I was going like 69 and he flat out told me that if I had a letter from a mechanic it would probably get dropped. I'm not concerned about paying the ticket, its 180, but thats nothing compared to insurance going up.

Are they never at the court date in WI or if I go will they set an other date and then the cop shows up?

you will go to court the date/time on the ticket, there will probally be 5-100 people (depending on where you got the ticket) and a court official will sit at a table and 1 by 1 you walk up and they tell you whats up/you tell your side/they drop ----/they ---- you harder. just be polite and have your paperwork.

oh and never wear a hat, that pisses them off royally when you do that

Your insurance won't go up because it was in a different state and they don't transfer info. I got a ticket in Colorado and my insurance never knew about it. What I want to know is why you didn't drive 20 minutes from the Metro(sexual)Dome to bring me bacardi?
