    Apparently your family ran into some pretty stupid cops who tried to lie about what actually happened then..

    I've taken numerous traffic tickets to court some with more than enough evidence to prove that i wasnt guilty and i still lost.

    lol all i said was its possible. again, my bad. jury duty and your exploits make you the definitive resource on legal battles involving traffic violations.

                  A police officer can. They are trained to estimate the speed and make that judgment call.

                  Stop driving like an asshole if you do not want to deal with traffic citations.

                    That's one of the funnier statements I have read in awhile! 🙂

                    Kind of like that kid who got his ticket thrown out when a helicopter cop "judged" his speed based on those distance markers.

                      What does your driving record look like? If this guy called you in, you more than likely did do some sort of "reckless driving". It doesnt help that your a young kid driving a nice car, but random old guys don't usually pick out a random guy driving and decide. "HEY I'M GONNA GET GIT THAT DUDE A TICKET!".
                      3 or 4 years ago, I called a lady in for reckless driving as she was speeding and swerving through traffic in her GTP on main in WF with a child in the backseat going 75-80. When It came to court, she denied it, they looked at her rapsheet, and charged her with reckless driving, along with almost getting child endangerment(almost lost her kid). Point is, the court is not stupid. If the judge doesn't like you, he will find you guilty. I'm sure you could appeal it afterwards and get it dropped, but I would do your homework before you show up, and hope you dont have many traffic violations.

                      no race car? becuz homeowner...

                        You mean the dude that got that ticket a couple years ago for like 265mph on I35 while on his HC51?

                          Bah, I lost in court because of that. Now, they didn't write down a specific speed but I still lost that one.

                            You did jury duty. Who cares? So have I. Jury duty does not mean you know everything about the law. Jury duty means you were just some underpaid person who sat in a chair and listened to some lawyer say some BS and you went into a room with some other people and stared at each other while someone else made the decision for the group.

                              School zone speed limits are 20 mph when the lights are flashing and/or when children are present.

                              So at the lower end of your estimate, you were doing 15 over the limit in a school zone? Hmm... I don't see where a ticket is warranted at all.

                                00Accord, that's saying the lights were indeed flashing, and that the old fuck is just trying to be a dick knowing it'd be more of a ticket because the lights were "flashing" I am just saying, but understand your point of view also.

                                  Honestly...I think this may have been inevitable, I have noticed you quite a few times hauling ass through campus...well over the posted speed limit. Yes, I understand most people don't drive the 15 through campus, but I know a few times you had to have been going close to 30. Slow down and you won't have this problem.

                                    I guarantee you that if this does go to court, and the guy shows up and eurofan doesnt have a lawyer, he will lose.

                                        I'm guessing you were doing something to get his attention, some random guy isn't going to pick a random car and decide to try to get him a ticket.

                                        If it does go to court as said already, if you don't have a lawyer its his word against yours and more then likely they will side with him and you will get the ticket regardless.

                                        If you want drive dumb and speed you gotta pay the price to do so, if you can't do so without bitching, quite driving like a jackass.
