So I was on the way to school...
and I got pulled. clocked me at 64. I didnt know cops could clock while driving but I guess they can. The part I'm not happy with is he said it was a 45 MPH zone but I swear it is a 55 MPH zone. There is a difference in the fines and punishments for 9MPH over vs. 19MPH over. I'm very angry but I was nice to the officer even though he wasn't very nice to me. I guess I need to get a lawyer and try to get them to make this go away.

Radar works in motion, although the last thing I knew, laser had to be from a standstill.
They can also pace you, although they have to give you a ~3mph benefit-of-the-doubt.

Yeah, I didn't really speed in NC when I was there. Every cop has radar which they can use on the move - so that's no fun. In PA, only state cops have radar and they have to be stopped when using it.

no, but i break the law. the difference is, when i get caught breaking the law (usually street-racing in school zones), i don't whine about it on internet forums and try to weasel my way out of it.

B) Wouldn't you want any advice you could get on how to play a system with as loose rules as those of any board game played with a 4-year-old? and third... How do you street race in school zones if you can't hit full spool at 12mph?

If I came of as offensive then I am sorry but I felt I wasnt not whinging but more looking for advice in a subject that many of you have had experiance in so I can possible not pay double insurance. I do admit I was driving 64 (My speedo said 60 but ) like I stated the main issue is 19MPH over vs. 9MPH is a very big difference. I can live with a fine for going 9 over but 19 = suspended for 30 days and a bigger fine and mandatory insurance increase. I am mainly getting a lawyer for it. I think lawyer is my only hope in keeping my license I don't thing going in there and saying "I'm guilty" will allow me that.

Obviously unfamiliar with the procedures of traffic court.
I went for my 'careless driving' ticket - doing donuts in the snow in my SVX - so don't anyone get hypocritical on here - and out of 150 people sitting in the courtroom over four hours, I was the only one taking my ticket to trial. Typically the prosecutor offers you the sweet deal; no points, but pay us $439... or take the points and a smaller fine. You don't need a lawyer for a speeding ticket, the prosecutor will drop it down for you, especially if its first offense

I don't wanna take the chance of them not offering me something. I don't want high insurance for 3 years. I thank you for your advice but not a route I think I wanna attempt .
