Speeding Tickets
I'm curious to see how many people have received a speeding ticket and how many fought and won, how many paid them, and how many had an officer that was a no show.
I'm curios because I went to court after pleading not guilty to a generic sppeding ticket and the officer didn't show to challenge me. Out of the 22-25 people that were there and were supposed to have a "trial", only two officers showed up- one local and one CHP- which means only two people were required to present their cases to the judge and hope for a dismissal. I thought the odds were a little better that an officer would show up- not much, but only 8-10% chance of the officer being there seems a little low.

RE: Speeding Tickets
I always pay and get court supervision and then its not on my record. I have done this a few times. Except for that ****in time I outran a cop and he later found out where I lived due to some dick-snot snitch. Anyway, they dropped the fleaing and eluding and wreckless driving and I got stuck paying the speeding ticket ($500). Was 120 in a 55 but I was going alot faster than that lemme tell ya.

RE: Speeding Tickets
I've had 3 speeding tickets, 1 reckless driving( smokeshows aren't well received in a family oriented neighborhood for some reason), and one trespassing while off-roading. So far, none have stuck
