well i made the mistake of passing a car on a double lined road and the cop was comin the other way now i face 105 dollar fine not bad but suspension of my license how can i beat this thing in court besides just hopeing the cop doesnt show up please help guys oo ya i know wat i did was dumb so u dont have to tell me

 

i dont think youd get off if the cop didnt show. this is a criminal court case. i got one in CT and if i cant get out of it im using this thing called AR

 

yea, not to much you can do on this one...asides from coming up with something creative or getting a lawyer. Although I dont know how much it would help..

 

If you want to play you must be ready to pay!

 

Get an attorney.

 

boy you must have some bad luck running into a cop like that, or you must do it often... in any case it would probably be in your best interest to consult a lawyer for advice, that is if you dont want to lose your license.

 

If you have the funds, get a lawyer. Not sure how they handle wreckless driving tickets in your state, but if the fine is only $105, it doesn't sound like anything too serious (ie something you can pay a lawyer a couple hundred bucks to get you out of)

 

look at it this way....if u lost ur license u would save gas money...

but get a lawyer....

 

only 105? damn, I got a ticket for 71 in a 45, now that's a fine, $237.

 

Where did you get the ticket at and who was the officer (State, sherriff or local) and what township he worked in. I know a couple of cops in the pitt area.

 

Same thing happened to me a few years ago, he wasn't happy seing a car coming head on to him, but he let me off due to having the same birthday as me!!! Very lucky day.

I would try getting reduced to crossing a double yellow, and drop the reckless if you can. Good luck

 

ya i know the fine is cheap and that doesnt bother me i wish the fine was more but the fact is the license suspension is where they get u ya i would save a decent amount in gas but my insurance will go way up being 18 on my own plan

 

I am an attorney in Virginia (so i can't help you where youlive) but I always say, for a reckless driving ticket, get an attorney, 95% of the time we can do something to help the situation (ie. lower the points you get) and the end result for your insurance rate is much cheaper than whatever fee i usually charge

 

Only $105 for a reckless???? Damn, when I was a kid, I got one of those, it cost me over $300, plus a class, plus suspended license. Lesson learned, at least.

 

hes right, i had a lawyer i had 3 of these tickets. 1 was chirping into 2nd gear in an s2000, the other was 34 behind walmart, its like a back street with a 15mph posted sign. They always find ways around it. I got off first ticket because tires were 1 day old and we blamed it on the fresh rubber and i had receipts to show they were 1 day old. my other got off because the 15mph sign wasnt posted directly on that private street, it was on the one over from it. and they gave me unsafe vehicle for that one. but if u got the cash i suggest a lawyer for sure..
