finally got the city of fargo speeding ticket refund.
-
I moved here in 03 and lived in town the entire time. I've gotten 2 speedings, one too fast / care required, and one equipment. I contested the too fast for conditions and lost [ judge davies: thumbs down]
None of the citations were for more than $45, I think. None of them were more than 2 pts so none were insurance reportable.
I got the class action letter and ignored it.
Now, I'm an old geezer and I don't go ricing every weekend, but I do wind the car out and I tend to commit acts of gross debauchery against the posted limit a a couple times a day.
But in this town, more than anywhere else I've lived.. if you're paying attention.. looking ahead like you're supposed to ... and maintaining high awareness.. the cops make it pretty easy to find themselves with plenty of time to slow down. I speed as often as I feel like it is safe to do so. And that's pretty often.
I think the cops here must focus on pulling over the guys that are mentally out to lunch, and who have the audacity to do a 80mph flyby of a parked cruiser and not notice him until he's pulling out behind them. Those guys deserve to get pulled over. They have no business hauling ass if they can't be bothered to notice car parked in the shoulder or median.
I've lived in other places where they setup hidden and camp and are clearly setting up egregious speed traps. And i don't get the sense that that is what they usually do here.

I didn't send anything in so I got a big $0. However, I would have got about $30 as not driving like a dumbass really helps things out.

I thought that it was supposed to be for 65% of the difference between what the state ticket price was and what the city charged. I got $39 back for 1 ticket and that was a speed care required (lost that one in court) that cost me $60. $39 is 65% of the ticket price.
