Recommendation on speeding ticket

cut/paste:
The best info site I've found is http://www.stantheradarman.com/ . It's like http://www.ticketassassin.com except you don't have to pay. A few things I've learned in the past 30 days:

1) Always do a trial by written declaration, http://www.stantheradarman.com/Trials_by_declaration.htm , coppers get paid to come to court and testify against you, they don't get paid for responding to a written trial request. Even if you lose this you can still request a court date for a lower fine or traffic school.

2) For viloations that don't have a minimum fine the court almost always lowers the fines when you appear in person. Take the time to go to court and save 50% or more.

3) Court gives zero slack for carpool or failure to appear violations.

4) Drag the process out as long as you can by waiting until the deadlines to request continuances and court dates - assuming your written trial request fails.

5) Slow down or get a Valentine One radar detector! http://www.valentine1.com
