OLD GUY WITH 87 GT, is there really any good defense against a speeding ticket when you're caught on radar?
In my case, it was at night, on a back road and I was the only car on the road.
He had his lights on before I ever saw him...never had a chance to slow down.
Now that I hear stories about cops tacking a few mph on the tickets, I wonder if he did that to me so that I would be in the 31mph+ over the limit?
Yes, I was speeding but I'm now wondering if I was actually going 77mph or perhaps a tad bit slower.
He asked me if I knew how fast I was going and I said 70 and he said" no, more like 77
Would it be worth admitting I was going 70 or 75 tops but not 77 to a judge?
