I know I could from experience in traffic court in my early days get an easy reduction to 2pt and 10mph over ,but I'm told that with a good drving record and a lawyer that it's possble dismissal or a drop to a non moving ...I'm also told that in Coloado part of the usual deal obtainable is driving school ,but you'll only get if represented by a lawyer ,So I'm spending $1000.00 for my traffic lawyer ,And now have wait to see how this shakes b4 I head off to CON-WAY'S orientation...I don't want to spend the $1000.00 ,but I know how the courts work here in this area of Colorado ,so best to play the game the way they like ,which is hiring familliar people of the DA to represent you...What a sham .

anyway 85, i take it you got an ungoverned pete,

I had/did a similar in Texas begining of the year. 18 over down that long hill West bound trying to beat curfew into Ft. Stockton. Got pulled up and after Troop wrote ticket was BSing with him, asked "how come pilot cars didn't get a ticket" He laughed and said "He11, that one in front was trying to get away from ya and the one in back was trying to keep up". Asked him if I now had to stay there as it was now full dark he said "No or I'll give you another ticket for illegal parking". He got behind us with his lights going for the last 10 miles into town.
Cost $400 for a local attorney (they must work cheap down there) and two faxes to sign off on it.

Yeah OK was cheap ...But it was a set program pay the $50 with the ticket ,and it's done ...Colorado you need the lawyer and must grease more hands in the legal chain .

But, I would make SURE it gets reduced or dropped. Conway nor anyone else is gonna want to see that on your record.

u should be able to do cheaper than 1200, heck my driver homie, the one that got the dui in the company truck in wisconsin only paid like 400 to fight a dui, my lawyer was 500 for the 74 in a 55 if i remember right........ps for the people not believing my heroin story in todays suburban chicago paper the daily herald a small blip about besides the usual cpd selling drugs and providing protection for drug dealers, a few cops also allegedly carried crack to plant on suspects, sound familiar, i hope it was that bald headed pig face cop that planted the sxit on me
