Ok so some of you know that about a week or so ago I got a pretty nifty speeding ticket. 87 in a 45 with nobody else on the road and a motorcycle cop sitting in some tree limbs.
Well the cop lowered the speed to the ticket to 60 in a 45 only if I go to drivers ED before court. Pretty nice eh. On the ticket under the Remarks section in section 2 (violation). He noted "M/R" then 87, and circled the 87. Now im not dumb I know what the 87 means but what about the M/R part?
Now my real question is. just a few minutes ago coming back from work i passed a sign that said that street was a 50MPH zone. On the ticket he wrote a 60 in a 45. So If I took some pics and brought them to court with me would that make the ticket less for being a 60 in a 50? Or could they bring it back to the full 87 MPH violation and it be 87 in 50?
Before it happens I know I was in the wrong and I know that the officer gave me a VERY good deal because I could be in jail with a suspended liscense. I also know that what I did was VERY stupid and I dont plan on doing it again because I am selling the Z and getting a diff. lifted truck. (Cant haul too much as with those or youy will flip that sucker/lose control). Any idea's?
RECAP QUESTION: Can the judge charge me for the actual speed I was going instead of the 60 in a 45 that the officer originally marked on the ticket
BTW: Nowhere on the ticket does it say it was 87 just the 87 and a circle around it.
