If it was a speeding ticket you would be in possession of the Holy Grail, just say'n.
+ infinity!!
FWIW, I'm not a fan of traffic cops. Ever see a traffic cop pulling over a Harley for the EXTREMELY excessive noise laws they break? (nope)
It's pick & choose. They pick. They choose. In the meantime, crime (real crime) does what it does.
Anyway.........just take some deep breaths, try not to let it get to you.....DEFINITELY frame that ticket if it is a speeding ticket (I would...and I'm DEAD serious!) but in the meantime write down your thoughts on paper now and every day til your case and TALK TO THE JUDGE!!!!!!! You will be surprised what a good conversation with the judge will do.
