thank you will and doc for all these tips

if you have a Passport or Bel, you can make one using a old phone cord. I bought the invisacord and feel a little ripped off due to the price. otherwise, great mod

Yeah all it is is a chopped up telephone cord with a RJ-11 connectiion @ one end.

Since there was talk about fighting tickets. What I was written up as driving an Infinity M35 SUV? The cop (I mean constable ) spent enough time back there to read to f-ing letters. It doesn't matter that much since I can do DD. But I already got 3 letters in the mail from lawyers, haha.

I always fight my tickets, we here in Cali (not sure about other states) can do something called "Trial by Declaration"...
basically you can fight your ticket over the mail, and if you loose you can still goto traffic school.(in cali, if you fight the ticket in court and loose... no traffic school allowed) (still have to pre-pay fine)

I don't know that mine can be overturned. This ticket is different from the others, it's on a long piece of paper, only a few inches wide and is printed, not written. It's almost 3 feet tall when unfolded. It seems everything is done by computer and they don't screw stuff up. Besides what vehicle I was driving. That could be the only thing. Hell, I was on my way back from a friends house putting on the GTSPEC, I don't think I was in my dad's car...

Wrong car = ticket thrown out.....Judge says "have a good rest of the day Stu"

Can you be sure though? Just seems to me that it doesn't matter if they say I'm driving a school bus, never mind the other penalties for that, as long as the cop says he saw me driving at the speed he shows. Maybe the justice system is weaker than I think.

Psiclne ... remember Stu is in TX :ridinghorse:

Dunno - but that put doubt out there.....if he made a mistake so simple as to look as the badge on the car - whos to say he didnt make a mistake clocking ya....i mean he/she cant even get the car right. Thats how I would fight it.

 

[StuLax18]

Yep, I just won't say that I saw the 48 on the gun.
Honestly, I will probably just do DD, since I won't be driving at school, and hope that I get through the summer with no tickets. All my tickets have been in May-June anyway.

 

[solekeeper]

stu, how fast were you going if you don't mind me asking?

 

[StuLax18]

stu, how fast were you going if you don't mind me asking?

48 in a 35, which somewhat confuses me because that means I was going 53 on my speedo, and I usually don't go above 50, because this will happen. Although the ticket says 513 feet, so it's possible I has going that fast at some point, maybe down a slight hill.

 

[solekeeper]

aahh man that sucks.
How much did the ticket nail you for?

I got a ticket couple of months ago in a school zone.. guess how much that was
