Got ticket in California 62 in 55 zone need suggestions.....
Hi guys, i got a ticket in California s/b I-5 near santa nella, ca, the officer wrote a ticket for doing 62 in 55 zone then i got another ticket in the mail for not having sufficient tread on inner duals on the trailer .
Now i do not want the ticket points to go on my record ........what are my options any suggestions for a good lawyer down there ..... or should i just take trial by declaration/mail...... or it is futile just plead guilty and pay damages ( any idea what amt.?).... thx :sad: :?: |

I know in the back in the classifieds area of the Truckers News magazine that you can pick up for free at almost any truckstop is some attorneys who advertise they'll handle your tickets nationwide.
Many moons ago I was pulled over on I-80 in the Land of Lincoln from a bear in the air. The ticket was for 65 in a 55 and I believe it was $90 plus points. I called one of those attorneys in the Truckers News classifieds and they took care of everything for me. It cost me $140 but I didn't get any points. I used them again a couple of times over the years and it generally cost me more than the speeding ticket was for but they always got the points erased from the ticket, and my record. Sooo....hammer down! |
get a lawyer to do his best for you but running 62 in CA. is pretty ridiculous whether you get away with it or not-Eventually you're gonna catch tickets

california is really strict about most everything when it comes to trucks. It's like it's own country. Thats why a lot of guys don't like going there. CHP can be real a$$es :roll:

Yeah, that 55 in California is a bunch of bull. I wouldnt mind going back here on vacation or something, but not in a truck. Good luck, srytrucker

Either way, this isn't a moving violation. It is an equipment violation. Slow down. |
I would fight them. That's two tickets with your name on them, its best to get rid of them as best you can. Even then Calif may give you a "warning" or restriction of some sort. Good luck

as for another comment on 62 mph well i was doing about 101 kmph as most truckers do that on i-5 the bear also gave a sermon how they allow upto 60 mph as long as i pass one truck/vehicle at a time and i was not hanging in left lane (which i was not it was just as i was pulling into right lane a car changed lanes to be in the same spot so i cancelled my turn signal next thing i know the flashing lights of the bear) anyways now i just do 95 kmph about 60 mph and do not go to left lane at all..... |
