What state? Obviously the court did not buy the story so take this very seriously as he is potentially facing serious long term consequences. For most parts of the country, he seriously needs a good experience lawyer to avoid a criminal record and jail time.

Check into this very carefully. I'm not familiar with NY but three moving violations at once can result in a reckless and/or a misdemeanor charge in many areas with concequences the same as a DWI.

Believe it or not, the following morning there was a black slick-top (Trooper I think) with limo tint enforcing the work zone in the same spot. They rotate unmarked vehicles around the state so you never know who is watching. Bottom line is if you are not running below the limit in NC, you do...

Yes, it is not illegal to run plates for expiration. It is your responsibility to make sure your vehicle is registered, insurance is up to date, inspections completed, etc. If he issued a ticket, this might be forgiven if you have everything in order before you go to court.

Durham PD are pretty far down the food chain, barely better than the Sheriff's, and are generally not happy with how they are treated by the city and the public. I drive through there every day, not the best place to speed. I love how the reduced speed zone goes to the county line, 3 mi...

I believe the points will follow your insurance, not your parents. Call your insurance company to find out. Your story won't do anything to help you in court. A lawyer has the best chance of minimizing the impact on you insurance.

Ask for references from the attorneys for people the recently represented. Give the people a call and ask if they were satisfied with the services of the attorney. Spend a morning in court and watch what happens to people in similar circumstances (you are not alone). No one can predict...

Take this very seriously. Scan the posts here and Google VA Speeding and you will find that if convicted, you will have a misdemeanor record, large fine, significant insurance increase, and in some VA courts risk spending time in jail . It is doubtful anything in your first paragraph will...

Very good! Probably one of the best educations you could have, and you showed some class in the process.

It is unlikely a broken speedometer will help with a 20 over ticket and may even result in an additional charge for defective equipment. I believe NC is the only state that has PJC, it only helps with insurance points for one conviction per houshold per three years: NC Traffic Points Be...

Driving +1 over can be charged as reckless in WA. "Embracing another while driving" is also reckless driving, 46.61.665. Maybe that is why he got the ticket :D He can go to jail if convicted. RCW 46.61.500 Reckless driving -- Penalty. (1) Any person who drives any vehicle in...
