Contest it and push off the date as many times as you can. On the court date, ask the police officer when the last time he calibrated his gun was at the time you got clocked. Say you were going a little over but didn't think it was that much. The officer may not even remember anymore or may not show up. | ||

Prayer for Judgement can be used, but you really can't get another ticket within (I think 3 years?) or that'll come to bite you in the ass too. You can represent yourself in a court case, talk with the DA who (according to the cop) will talk to you about pleaing to a lower charge. I'm not 100% sure about this as I happened to be out of the state for my court date so ended up hiring a lawyer to deal with this. He gave me a few options, no driving class, 9 over charge, take points on the license, with I believe no impact on insurance or take driving class ($50), plead to improper equipment and have no impact on license and insurance. I suggest you talk to a lawyer about it, see what they say and you can choose whether to hire them or not. But if you're available, you can probably do all this yourself. Give the DA a call and see if you can talk with them and have them give you advice on how to deal with this. | ||
