so i was on my way to look at a new school today, i'm totally lost beyond belief, the town i was in uses only street numbers, 3rd street runs north south 3rd ave runs east (i probably have that backwards, needless to say i was more lost than a grizly bear in the ocean)
so i was driving around, i ended up on a frontage road pretty much in nowhere, speed limit was 65 on the highway, i assumed about 45 or so for the frontage road. the cop setting behing some trees running radar informed me it was 30. and that i was doing 43.
i was totally in the wrong but the last thing i need is a ticket, its 2 points and $175 if i plea it outside of court. i don't need that on my record (trying to get a flying job, one ticket is bad enough) and my bank account definatly doesn't need that. so what can i do?
i did notice the cop didn't cross his t's or dot his I's. on the ticket it says my car is green. my car is black, i don't think this is going to get me anywhere but in the event that it might i thought i'd throw it on here.
thanks, and for future reference what could i have said other than i was going what i thought was the speedlimit and what i thought was a safe and reasonable speed?
