[QUOTE=grewal06;2158159]the easiest way is to go to court at least 7 days before your court date and ask for an extention in the date for school reasons. trust me it works all the time. and make sure you get atleast a month extention so that way the cop will forget to show up. and just look at it this way even if he does show up you bought yourself an extra month to save up for that ticket!!! :)[/QUOTE]

this is the first part to getting out of a ticket. next you need to do is trial by written declaration. then you get that extended and by the end of it its been almost a year and more then likely the cop will have for gotten/lost his paper work. and even if that fails you can ask for a court date and then postpone that date some more and then the cop will have totally forgotten the details of your case. if you want some more details PM me. any ways good luck and let us know how it goes.

Exactly. Extension + Written Declaration.

The idea behind ticket assassin is to give you the info to do your own Written Declaration, not to create some magic defense that wins every time :rolleyes:
The legal system is about technicalities, and that site gives you a few tricks that can help you beat a ticket. In the end, if you were busted fair and square, the cop does the paperwork and has his **** together, then you are screwed.

I found a cool trick recently, and I have not had a ticket since.[B][U] [SIZE="5"]DO NOT SPEED[/SIZE][/U][/B] Ya know, the speed limit is not just intended to inconvenience people who cannot keep a schedule.

You're lying to yourself, God, and the Internet (listed in order of importance) if you're saying you have never...... EEEEEEVAR sped.

Fixed. :lol:

^not funny...parking hell huh?

so this was the big downhill straight into Scotts Valley? Thats 65, and a ticket for ONLY 75 just from pacing is BS IMO

Ask for the critical speed limit of the area within the past 2-3 years.

CRITICAL SPEED LIMIT, the actual limits that some person in an unmarked car hits every 3-5th vehicle to see how fast they are going.

Most people know that people are over the speed limit, no one actually drives 65 in a 65 area.

Critical speed limits are probably 5-10mph over the limit. So if the critical limit is say 73 in a 65 zone, the judge if he decides to hit you with some fee will only be able to hit you for 73 if you were going 75, which is 2mph ticket =P lol

Good thought, but i doubt every 3-5th car goes over 65mph in the area he got his ticket.

Once you get over the hill to Scotts Valley/ Santa Cruz most people go 65.



It turns to 65mph (from 50) once you pass the Ocean Honda Whale billboard, and still its downhill with tall K-rails, so people are scared and dont normally get up to speed until they hit the flat at ScottsValley (old Denny's sign)

Thats when i pass everyone that is still doing 50

Yea, just a suggestion that everyone should ask for. =) I used to talk to a gurl who worked for one of those companies that have radar guns and detect the critical speed limits of certain areas.

She said to use that argument, so I figured it might come in handy for some speeding tickets to reduce fines and make the cop work harder to fine you =p

[QUOTE=JDM555;2158263]Sorry to ask in your thread, but if your driving 65-67mph and a cop pulls you over and says your going 70-75. Can you ask to see the speed on his radar gun to prove you were going that fast in a very respectful way? Or would that not work?

You can ask - but he is not required to show you.

The device has to have been calibrated, but other than that, you don't have much to go on unless the gunning technique was iffy (from another moving car etc.).

This is what you could try and use if you fight it, but if he has the paperwork proving his calibration you're SOL.

^Not funny :D

Ok it is pretty easy to say never speed, and to be honest I try not to at all times because it isn't worth it, but it does happen occasionally...especially driving a subaru.

But I am minding my own business as cars are flying by me only to realize I'm being trailed by a cop. Did he not see the other cars that were passing me AS he was following?

I still think I am going to contest it because whats the worst that can happen? I still get convicted but at least there is a slim possibility I get off.

Thanks for all your help guys and drive safely!

Hey I can answer this question. My wifes works for the police and this is how it works. You can ask to see the radar gun. However, they are not required by law to show you until your day at court. (somehow they save the speed. pry the in-dash cam.) I have some friends that are cops(through my wife working with them.) Most of the time if they got you for the speed they say you were going you probably were. If you are nice and polite they will pry show it to you. If they just wanted to mess with you go to court and they probably wont show up.

and further more if someone does the high five thing and gets a picture I will personally drive to your house and buy you a beer.
