    Need help on speeding ticket.

    Let's say I was cruising down the highway on I-85, north of Atlanta in Gwinnett county, and there's medium traffic, probably about three cars behind me, I see flashing blue lights, I slow down, and it turns out I'm the one being pulled over. I get a ticket for 90 in a 65 zone, being paced. That cop's pretty talented to be able to pace me from about 1/4 mile behind me along with several cars there too. Well, I'm only 17, but I think I can easily fight this one, but I need suggestions. BTW, I also got a ticket for not using my turn signals...he said "sometimes you didn't completely use them, other times you did..." which I thought was actually kinda funny. I need help everyone.

    I was supposedly paced doing 110 on a 1/4 mile stretch as well, and I was slowing down for the next exit. It was all bogus, and my lawyer thought so too, but in the end, all he could do was get the fine reduced and keep the points off my record. It's fine with me, though, since 110 is considered a Class A misdemeanor so I got off okay. Get a lawyer if you can. Otherwise go to www.ticketassassin.com for some tips.

    Going to court will almost always reduce the fine. If you have money and too many points, hire a lawyer.

    Some states have deferments. Basically your infraction gets put aside for a period of time and if you don't screw up in that period it gets thrown out. If you do mess up it goes back on your record along with whatever you just did.

    Not so much a signature as a cry for help.

    Hold on, saw this in a cartoon once...think I can pull it off.
