I got a 95 mph speeding ticket in a 55. What is the price. In Florida. 19. First ticket. First time speeding.?

I never speed i just had a bad foot and wanted to get home after a bad day at work. Went around a turn and the cop was in the construction in the median in between the barricades. He pulled me over and knew I was screwed and was honest with him and gave him all he needed and he felt bad but I knew he had to. I have court to find out how much. I have a very limited budget with work and school. Anyone know price range? I live in Southern Florida. I understand it was stupid speeding I just was wanting to go home and my dad is a paramedic and I know the consequences and my friend died in a car accident and I will never go over the speed limit. I just want to have the money to make my bills. So price range and do i lose my license? First time speeding and ticket. Thank you in advance!
What do you have to do for community service?
No he didnt he just said the judge will descide.
How high am i looking i pay 125 a month right now.
Yeah we talked for like 20 minutes about how in the world my 2002 VW New Beetle Turbo S got to 98 in a quarter of a mile. We talked about school and family and all kinds of stuff.
Anyone that has gotten this in Southern Florida? I need to know my budget.

Ohio Juvenile Speeding Ticket- What should i plead?

I was cited for going 41mph in a 25mph area. I am 16 and this is obviously my first offense. I've been reading up on lots of websites and they all agree on one thing- Plead not guilty and blame the laser accuracy. What do you think? What am i expecting, if proven guilty, in court fees, ticket fee, and insurance increses? Should I expect Insurance increases even if im proven innocent? A friend told me I should write an appology paper about how sorry i am and how much of a priviledge driving is...will the court even take the time to look at this. Sorry theres so many questions if u have any websites that can help please share!

Why don’t police officers enforce laws like the speed limit?

Nearly 100% of drivers, unfortunately, jeopardize safety by breaking the law and speeding. Why don't police officers enforce this better? Speeders endanger others and risk killing themselves and others, which is why there is a speed limit law.

I pleaded guilty for a speeding ticket and paid it online. What can I do now if I want to plead not guilty?

I was going 80 in a 55 zone. I just paid it online. People are telling me I should have fought it. Can anything be done now? Its a big fine and a lot of points. HELP!

I pleaded guilty at first because it was my first ticket and I was afraid to tell my parents. I knew that if I had pleaded NOT guilty than the court hearing would go to my house and they would find out. I decided to tell them. So now they know but I paid it off already. So I wanted to plead not guilty now

Lost Speeding Ticket?

I got a "notice to appear in court"/ticket for an infraction for speeding a few months ago from the Los Angeles Police Dept. On the actual ticket given to me on site it said the date I need to appear in court with my parent, since i was a minor when i received the ticket. Later in the mail i got a notice saying that the date i needed to be in court was changed.
I lost the notice saying when the date was changed to, and i dont remember what it was at all (though i think it is within the next few days) but i still have the ticket. does anyone know what i should do? should i possibly try to call someone about this?

My attorney didn’t show up for court for a speeding ticket. How do I get my money back from the attorney?

I got a speeding ticket and hired an attorney to see about getting the points withheld. I was told that the attorney would show up to court for me and I would receive a letter in the mail from the attorney's office advising of the outcome. I didn't receive my letter from the attorney's office yet, but I did get a "Memo of Sentencing" from the court house. It appears that my attorney did not show up but the memo isn't clear. I am unable to call the court house until tomorrow, since it's the weekend. Under Defendant, it says "Def & Attny not present" and under special conditions it says "TBC held w/out defendant and attny".
I prepaid this attorney 0.00 via check. I am going to ask him for a refund of course, but if he doesn't give me one, should I immediately file a claim with small claims?
Please don't leave stupid/thoughtless comments about how speeding is illegal and I should deal with the consequences. My question is how to deal w/ the fact that my attny didn't show.
Also, would it be possible to file a complaint with the State Bar?

How much will my insurance go up after I’ve gotten a speeding ticket?

Alright here is the deal, this Monday i got pulled over by this idiot cop who gave me a speeding ticket for going something like 8-10 mph over...I'm 17 going on 18 and have had my license for about a year and a half or longer. I have had no prior tickets, violations, ect. It was a 75 dollar fine which im paying....but im really worried about my insurance, my parents pay it, and i havn't told them about the ticket, im just going to pay it...so my question is...will they notice a dramatic change in my insurance rates? for one speeding ticket? oh and also, i live in idaho...i know these things vary by state.

Out of state violation. Living in California… Speeding ticket in NJ?

I have a speeding ticket that I received while I was renting a car in NJ that I naively ignored until now... this is because I just received a Notice of Warrant for Arrest. I am specifically interested in my case, i.e. NJ-CA. I have a valid driving license in California and my questions are:

1) Is this warrant valid in California, i.e., can i get arrested here? (According to: http://www.carinsurance.com/kb/content20603.aspx since CA does not NRVC, the warrant is not honored in CA)
2) How many points will I get and I can beat the points by going to traffic school? (According to this, I get one point: http://www.dmv.ca.gov/dl/vioptct.htm#oneoutofstate)
3) Will it affect my insurance?

Anything else that you think I should know will also be appreciated.

Thanks!

Speeding traffic ticket in Fremont, CA. Officer cited me going 95 in a 65. Traffic school?

I was wondering if I'm I eligible to go to traffic school? I have not gotten a ticket in over 2 years (traffic school cleared it) If I am not eligible, what can I do to plead for traffic school? Do I have to go to the arraignment and ask the judge for the chance of traffic school? Or is there a different process to do this?

Thanks

In order to prepare your own speeding ticket defense, are you able to sit in on other trials at traffic court?

I have an upcoming trial date in traffic court, and I want to gain some knowledge in order to beat the ticket. One way I figure is to sit in the back of the small courtroom and learn how other people are pleading their own cases. I know that in regular courtroom cases, the gallery is open to all visitors. Therefore I want to know is the traffic violations court open for all to see, even when it's not my day of trial.

Anyone go to court to contest a speeding ticket before? I’m in NJ?

I got a speeding ticket today during a police speed trap...I got a 4 point ticket. I was thinking of going to court to contest it, so at least I wouldn't have that many points on my insurance. But I don't know how the whole court thing works...is it true that if the officer doesn't show up, its dropped? Will I make an a** of myself if I go to contest?

I would love to hear from anyone who's been there!done that!

Speeding Ticket passing through Virginia?

I got a speeding ticket passing through VA on my way to Maryland. I will not be able to attend my court date and will have to just pay the fine. My question is do I have to go to court to request traffic school? Also, my license is from California and my car is registered in North Carolina. Does the ticket get forwarded to where my license is from or where my car is registered?

Appealing a speeding ticket?

I was on a "highway" today and received a speeding ticket. I was unaware that this was not the same limit as a highway and was going with the flow of traffic. I was doing 75 in a 55 and received a 0 ticket. I would like to appeal the ticket but am wondering just what to say. Any suggestions?
