I got a ticket in a school zone doing 47 in a 25:mad: I didn't see the sign at all and it was 4:30! Doesn't school get out at like 3:15 to 3:30? Any way there was a truck infront of me and the cop stops traffic and tells the truck and the other car to go and picks me out of the 3 i am guessing becuase i am in a M3. Anyone know how bad the tickets going to be i am guessing around $600 this sucks! Anyone know how i can get out of it? thanks

Hmm, it will probably cost about that much man, that sucks sooo bad. Where did you get it? I recently got a 65 in a 40, and that is going to hurt!

I just got my first ticket ever a few weeks ago. 91 in a 55, I was in Westchester NY driving my MkV GTI. I can't wait to go to court and try to get out of it!

It was my first ticket also. It just makes me mad becuase he picked me out of the 3 cars. Does anyone know the No-Lo laws becuase if its over $500 i think that is what i am going to do!

That sucks. My sister failed her drivers test because she was speeding in the school zone. Not as bad as you were though. You can contend nolo every 5 years IF it is a moving violation. If you try to plead nolo on a something like an expired tag then it will not work.

Plee it down to no points, pay the fine(reduced if your good) and take a class. Thats how I got out of a 60 in a school zone...no points means no insurance increase.

talk to the other lawyer, I called the court and got the name of the lawyer that was against me and talked with him. Just be all young and innocent and say my I pay my own insurance and blah blah blah is there any way you can do a reduced fine and no points If i take a drving class or some BS like that
