I've had this happen to me before, I was caught by a GA state though. Its funny how something can happen so quickly, if it weren't for my pretty nice 4 piston calibers he would have caught me doing 120. So I was only given a speeding ticket and had to pay the fine. Pretty cool lady, didn't scream or anything. After that, I rushed to work as fast as possible. Being late sucks.
Oh, good luck. Guess my story didn't help much, lolol.
GSP has the cheapest tickets in the state! My 30 over was only $150.00...and the GSP that caught me, was the coolest guy about everything.Originally Posted by Maniac †
I had a 17 over in Gwinnett, and it was around $170 or so...that cop acted like I had a dead body in my car.
Good, Ole'Fasion bullshit!
Yeah they are, I think mine was about that price(for an 85 in a 55)... Gwinnett just sucks balls.
GSP = "You were goin' a little fast there son"
GPD = "Do you know what the speed limit is on 316...Do you have anything in the car I should know about"
I will also add, if I had been going 31 over, the ticket would have jumped to $250 and a reckless driving charge
haha that is really cheap...I once got a ticket for speeding and the fine was 800 including court costs...and I was only going 21 over...
although it was like my 3rd ticket in 4 yrs, or some bull****...
grand prix.....
Holy hell thats expensive!!! Did you get a lawyer or something?
oh, and those two tickes (+17 & +30) were within a week of eachother, and I was in court for BOTH at the same time (and had 2 on my record still from the previous year)

no, lawyer...the girl in front of me had a lawyer, and he actually gave her more of a fine for speeding than I got...Lets just say I have about 14 speeding ticketsno lead foot
then about a year later i had another ticket, fine went down to 600 including court costs...
then in 05 my last ticket was 400 plus court costs..
Gainesville City Police...getting me every time...

Was it the same judge? The one judge I had to see in Gainesville was actually pretty nice to me, but I have a pretty rare situation.no, lawyer...the girl in front of me had a lawyer, and he actually gave her more of a fine for speeding than I got...Lets just say I have about 14 speeding tickets

As for the ticket discussion, the defensive driving thing is a good idea. It doesn't take that long, and will be a little cheaper than losing your licence until you turn 18. If you do plead "Nolo", you still have to pay the fine, and I'm not sure about whether or not the points go onto your licence or not these days. If your parents know a lawyer, it would be wise to to discuss it with them. They may even know someone who knows the judge, and then you can gauge what would be the best course of action from there. And I've had more speeding tickets/moving violations than any 3 people who have posted so far put together. Some of the Ga state laws have changed in the last 10 years to make my glorious driving record completely impossible, but I've seen how the system tends to work. And if you haven't told your parents about the ticket yet, it couldn't hurt, as they will evenually find out anyway.
thats cheep too... i had to pay for an 18 over ticket and drivin on a suspended license.... that was 850 on the drivin on a suspended license and 175 on the 18 over... so 1025 that day
