Speeding ticket technicality question

Bullshit that cops don't have quotas.

Ariybd the corner from my office is a four lane city street with about 4 schools within a couple of kilometres of each other.

It's a 40 kph zone (25 mph) --I have no problem with that except when I see the radar out at 5:30 nailing driver after driver for doing 50 in that zone---that's not even 10 mph about the limit.

It's known as the Renforth Cash Cow.

 

I know it may be a fine point of law but when a cop writes a ticket, he has to get the details right: correct name of the person he's charging, make, model and year of car, time of day, place and the correct address of the person he's giving the ticket to.

Sorry, the cop fucked up and any judge will throw it out of court.

 

Really? 51 in a 25 and you think that's a quota thing??

And since when does the 15th mean the month is coming to an end?

 

I never said he should pay the fine. I said he should take it to court and since the cop wrote down an incorrect address for the guy, a judge will throw it out.

 

It's not out of the realm of possibility that a cop was writing a ticket just to hit his or her quota.

 

In the middle of the month? When someone more than DOUBLED the speed limit?

Set down the pills and alcohol.

 

It's not an incorrect address. It's the address he's moving to. I assume the cop used it so he will get the paperwork in the mail.

Fight it if you want to, but I bet all it does is piss off the judge.

 

No pills and booze here. Zebra said he didn't think he was going 51. The cop said he was. I'm going to take Zebra at his word that he wasn't going twice the speed limit. If he was, well, he probably deserves the ticket.

 

He also said it was "entirely possible" he was going 51.

 

Okay, well, I could be wrong here. It wouldn't be the first time.

 

Got pulled over the other night going 44 in a 25 mph zone. Cop takes my license, asks where I'm going. "To work." Asks where I work. "The local rag." Pats me on the arm, hands me my license back and tells me to slow down. I resisted the temptation to say "Awesome, dude!"

 

Just go to court and plead it down to a zero point offense.
You should be able to do this. Town gets their money from the fine and you get to escape with zero points on your license, meaning no insurance rate increase.
