I got my first offense for a speeding ticket 89 in a 55, $421 ticket. I'm 20 and i'm FREAKING OUT.



I have heard if you "donate to katrina $75" it goes OFF your record, sounds more like a hoax...



Others have told me it's my first offense, i may be able to tell the clerk BEFORE i go to the judge i want diversion and they CANNOT turn me down? then it doesn't go on my record...



others have told me if i try to show the judge that i learned my lesson he may make me pay the FULL ticket but not make it go on my record IF i don't get another for 6 months to a year (which is fine!)



I've read hoaxes on the internet about writing the ticket for barely over, blah blah but the DMV isn't that stupid.



So WHAT CAN I DO, i will do ANYTHING to NOT get this on my record, HOW can i show the judge that it FREAKED ME OUT and i LEARNED ME LESSON and NOT have it go on my record at ALL!?!?!?



HELP! DEAR GOD PLEASE HELP!

Dude, it's not like your future dream job won't hire you because you have a traffic ticket. Get serious...just pay the ticket and take the pts. on your license, if it's anything like NY it expires after 2 years I think. Your insurance shouldn't even go up, because mine never has for traffic tickets. Yeah, it's a lot of $$$, but you were going 44 mph above the speed limit. Your "record" will be fine.

You were going 89 in the ZX2?



Easy fix, no judge in the world will believe that car was going that fast without shaking apart!

Shut up banzai, i'm serious, yes, i was in the ZX2.

i was in midtown the other day, and a real cop , in those lil trucks things that look like the ones mazda used to make pulled up in front of me at an angle, i was like **** that i aint getting a ticket, so i backed up and pulled out and he was chasing me around midtwon around like 34th and **** and i broke out on him hahahh



Its a $150 ticket for double parking and im not gonna pay that cause i cant afford it. This is the first time i pulled that off on a real cop, i really dont care for traffic cops, i broke my girls side mirror on a traffic cops back last year in early october for giving me a $115 TICKET, i caught him a few blocks down, even though i paid the meter.



Jason NYC

oh ****, thems be fightin' words...

you couldn't have been in the zx2... you gotta be kiddin me.

i got 2 parking tickets at school



im not paying them.



once i get the other fc, they wont know the difference

Ok seriously, yes, zx2, either help or don't post. the ZX2 when the governor toggle is off it will do 120.



the sarcastic comments are not helping at all i'm facing a lot of insurance to go up and a $421 and all you can do is be an ass, if you were in this situation i would help if i could, not insult you, not be an ass, but help. I'm not a bad guy and i'm sick of this board "giving me crap" just because I own a FORD ******* ESCORT ZX2, i am NOT A BAD PERSON, i still know a bit about cars and I TRY to help people, if you can't take that, realize it and be nice to me for ONCE when I ACTUALLY NEED IT then SHOVE IT.

In general discussion, expect to be badgered and have smart-ass comments thrown at you.

dude its GENERAL DISCUSSION



that means its our job to bust your balls



try doing defensive driving?

so appreciative and great when i'm asking for help, not sarcastic smart-ass comments. You'd think someone could be a real person for once, any other time, I don't care.

it's Gen D , everyone has the right to post though. Everyone here got flamed one time or another in Gen D

yeah

thank god, that thing was freakin' huge.

exactly.. i think nopenis aka emoboy has taken more abuse than anyone in the history of the internet.



his band keeps playin their power chords and they don't GIVE A **** yo.



so chill the **** out and realize that your stupid ass ticket isn't the end of the ******* world. either fight it in court, or pay it. end of ******* story.

What i'm asking is a tip on HOW to fight it in court. I can't avoid court.

GET A ******* LAWYER !



or put oversize tires on it and say your speedo is off.

can't do either, i have simply enough to pay the ticket and hope for diversion, i'm looking for info on how to beat the ticket intelligently without a laywer, without cheating.

Isn't there any real individuals, like say...friends or family members that either A. Know the law or B. ARE the law...that could help answer your questions? Instead of asking some random online tards..



I honestly don't know because in 6 years of driving I've never once gotten a ticket, pulled over 10 times, but never a ticket... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...R#>/unsure.png

where u at? NJ? how did he catch you?

your right we don't care and nor do I. Music now adays is simpler and easier to enjoy, sorry if you can't catch onto that. I mean what do you listen to that is soo involved? Unless your listening to the baroque period music like Bach, im pretty sure your **** you listen to is simple too. So yes, my band does use power chords as well as augmented chords and your "normal" chords and arpeggios, major and minor scales and other musical devices. Sorry if you can't handle it, but if ya don't like our music just dont listen. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

now emoboy... don't get offended.

haha, sup phoenix! you ain't got no tickets cuz your 7 is still STOCK! (least last time i saw at giant stadium) quit messin' around already and start modding!

It's going to depend on the judge. The last time, hell the only time, that I was in traffic court, the judge basically said that anyone there to contest a speeding ticket could stop trying to waste his time, get the hell out of his courtroom and pay the ticket. Then he went on to hear the other cases. In his court, if you had a speeding ticket, you were guilty. Pay the man. See ya!

he sold his car

oh. :( that sucks.



been out of it for so long, don't know who's around anymore.



sigh...

nice sentence

what were the circumstances of the ticket? how did he get you. where was he and where were you? what kind of radar was he using?



these are all things that need to be posted in this thread. one of the most important is the kind of radar. pray that its an mph brand bee III model

LOL You have a case, however before I started modifying my 7, I err...sold it. I just have more important things to do with $14k then pour that and then even more money (Mods..) into a depreciating item. I am investing it in my music or real estate (whichever happens first, for now its in the bank...) instead...



However, that car saw 100-110 pretty often, and given the sequential turbo setup, anytime I pulled out onto a 55mph road, I couldn't stop accelerating until 85, and coast down :P Oh yea, I'm badass

If that worked, you can forever get tickets and it only be your first offense. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683329.gif

Two options, 1. pay the ticket, 2. lawyer.

...

If you dont have the money to pay for your indescritions, then YOU SHOULDNT HAVE BENN ******* SPEEDING. If you cant afford a lawyer to beat the rap, thats too bad, all you can do is throw yourself at the mercy of the court.



Let me guess? You cant afford your car payment if your insurance goes up? Thats GODS way of telling you that you cant afford the car you are driving.

You are one cranky old fart Banzai, and an asset to the forum!



Tell it like it is.

thats what i was thinking..



imagine if the price of gas goes up for this guy...

you sure dramon or hand wouldnt be up there for all the gay and asian call boy comments made about them?



oh and Koi, have you considered talking to the DA to see if he can cut you some sort of deal like community service or something? thats what I did and i only had to pay court costs and do some community service on my first offense

From his lack of responses I must surmise he is either:



1.Used up his allotment of time on the computer, and his mommie said its time to do his homework



or



2. Its his shift at the drive-thru for Mcdonalds

oh and banzai strikes back

He only strikes back because I told him to shut up, asked for help, and he's being a fuckface. The lack of responses is taking my lunch break at work because legally you're supposed to have a 1 hour break when you work an 8 hour shift or more, like 10 hours in this case.



Lothema, thanks for the info I'll call the DA and see if they can work something out, I'd be willing to do pretty much anything, the ticket itself is the expensive part. I'll see what they are willing to do, I'm willing to be as flexible as "a reed in the wind" at this point really. I called them earlier, she said she would be surprised if the judge did anything but tell me not to do diversion. I'll be shaving my mohawk and taking out my lip ring it would appear, slacks, tie and nice shirt...



Correction (anything but diversion)
