I Need a Good Speeding Ticket Attorney

[BeachSiO2]

Sorry, I was thinking it was a minor violation, then reread that he got 2 tickets.

Factoid - you can tell how many felonies someone has by looking at their driver's license. If it ends in 0, they've never had one. Cool, huh?

You can also tell the year they were born by their DL number.

Not quite as useful of a trick on a first date! ;-)

I have posted what happened this morning in the Lounge-

These days, asking for ID BEFORE going on that first date may be helpful.

scooter that all depends on how much Geo was speeding vs the speed limit. School and paying ticket can reduce the points taken off, but if I correctly remember, if you are speeding in excess of 20mph, aka- wreckless driving, you will still get points removed.

My oldest son has had more speeding tickets than anyone I know and he took the driving class every time and it always kept him from getting the points so I highly recommend doing it. You can sign up online but you do have to show up in person for the class and it is 4 hours long. Various locations. They will also take 18.75 off the price of your ticket for taking the class. Thank goodness he calmed down and hasn't had a ticket in well over 18 months now. I always knew when he got one because they send those postcards for driving class in the mail soon after.

This isn't intented to be a thread on the ethics of plea bargaining traffic citations. I might participate another time if that is where you want to go. But like I said, just looking for referral...

Thanks!

fair enough.

Taking the test online and paying your ticket will keep you from getting any points off.

So, instead of "beating" a ticket, one can do the responsible thing and take a class for refreshing your driving skills and knowledge. Hmmm....sounds like just the ticket!

I get it.

You think I am less of a man for not just paying it rather than seeking out an attorney and trying to reduce it to a lesser offense (which has served me well in the past)...

You think I am more responsible if I sit in a class for 4 hours rather than try to "beat" it...


So anyway, back to my question-
do you know of a good attorney?

You do the crime you pay the fine. Pay an attorney or pay for a class. I get that you are trying to keep your record/points clean. I suggest you slow down. ;-)
FYI...I am married to an attorney*, but I am very touchy about abuses of the system. Not saying you are abusing the system, I just don't think the system is right. Sorry Geo...I have issues. Good luck.

*...he is good, but he is in Texas and doesn't practice law with good stories. Darn it.

I am sitting here amazed that we have one of the best judicial systems in the world and you are catching flak for using it. Good luck with your search for an attorney.
