RE: speeding ticket - hiring a lawyer...
I dont care how anyone can beat the system.. People learn their lessons better when they have to pay a price... Its called rule of law and is part of the justice system.. If you dont like it, go join Al Qaeda in Iraq because you are a terrorist.. jk.. but seriously he should be a man and accept the consequences of his actions.

RE: speeding ticket - hiring a lawyer...
jest, i am paying the price - even if i am paying a lawyer...its major money out of my pockets.
anyway, this post has confused me more than helped me.
i think what i am gonna do is just hold out till i get the court dates in the mail...since they probably won't even come for a few weeks, maybe even months.
what is annoying is that this speeding ticket is in an area where i never am. (i was in the middle of coming home from college when i got stopped.) so paying a lawyer isn't just to help me get rid of the ticket, but will also keep me from having to drive all the way back to the middle of bumble to represent myself.
what's great is how the speed i was going when i got pulled over is basically as fast as everyone else was going at the time. wrong place, wrong time.
grrr...i hate cops.
