To any mods thinking about moving this: I just wanted to update a bunch of ppl who helped me out (ppl here did that, on the traffic violations forum theres hardly any help), if you wanna move it fine, but it's more relevant here where there's people who gave me advice.
Well if you've been here a few months you may remember the tickets I got, the incompetent lawyer, the others tickets lol etc. Well a coupel weeks ago I went in for the 2nd set, this was unsafe lane change and failure to signal lane change (in my dad's car). failure to signal got thrown out and i got 2 pts and a fine. Well I got a very very good lawyer (covered under my dad's benefits again) and today i had court for the triple-ticket
(funny thing was i saw that this cop only once [for this court session] gave out one ticket... many ppl got 3 like me, or 4, one guy got 6 tickets at once from this little bend-over-to-quota bitch)
88 in a 50 reduced to 60 in a 50 - 2 points and 150 dollar fee, $30 court cost
Careless driving - reduced to unsafe driving, no points and same fees as above
failure to keep right on a highway - dismissed.
so instead of having 11 or 13 points i have 4... no license suspension but since its a probational license, i'm gonan get a letter from DMV soon saying i have to take a drivers class (im gonna see if i can get points off from that too, or take one where i can get them knocked off on top of the DMV one), and im gonna be on probation for a year... which isnt too bad since im not taking my car to college. So all in all I got lucky... adn I wish they build a track near me. Closest one is like 45 min away if theres no traffic. Ehh lesson learned anyway - my pockets are shallow
