Does any one know anything about getting a ticket with the laser speed gun? Is is beyound a doubt... How do you know you dont have the wrong car?

 

It's just like claymore said. The older radar had a wider target area so you stood a chance of saying it wasn't me. The lasar is a pinpoint lasar beam so there's no mistake. You can only hope the cop doesn't show up for court.

 

I guess what I have to say after reading the replies is that "hey the Fit does 80 mph pretty easy"... Hmm very easy. oops

 

yeah your pretty much screwed.hopefuly you can do traffic school

 

I didn't say they wouldn't show up. I just said that's about all he can hope for. It's not like they just show up if they feel like it but sometimes you get lucky. At least I gave him some hope....

 

A good way to increase your chances of getting out of it, is to try and ask for an extension. DO NOT pay the ticket right away---that just says "Boy I sure am guilty, here's my money". To the cop, generally your court date is a "group date" for him/her. Asking for an extension for a different date can yield an absent officer/and or written testimony, simply because SOME officers would rather not come in to court on their day off. If you werent a jerk to the cop when he/she pulled you over, you may be inclined to personally call him/her and MAYBE work something out. I chose the latter( he thought I was kinda mean when he pulled me over) and with the help of my cop brother-in-law, he dropped the ticket. Hope that helps.
