Why is the cop stupid? He did you a huge favor. 26 miles over the limit? You think he is the stupid one!

You would think your recent accident would still be fresh in your memory. Blaming your girlfriend for your speeding?

Young man, I think you need to meet Mr. Responsibility and his friend Mrs. Mature.

+1. If you are not willing to pay the consequences for breaking the law, then you shouldn't break it in the 1st place.

Suck it up, pay the fine, and get on with life.

Haha, I'm glad you got it. You sound like a horrible driver after reading about your accident with the "faulty" brakes. I bet your parents are really happy with you right now.

get a radar detector, it won't prevent tickets but definately reduce your chances of getting one.

WTF is this thread.. I was speeding and got caught, but its not my fault my Benz is heavy, or maybe the brakes failed again? But its not my fault the bike cop is stupid...

That's grade 9 reasoning, pay the ticket and next time leave earlier so you don't end up driving like an idiot, smoothie, girlfriend or not.

California requires traffic enforcement to be open and visible. The police cannot hide. They must also be using a marked vehicle and distinctive clothing, meaning a uniform.

You should never lie in Court or to government officials, but you can ask them to prove their case against you.

Get legal help if possible. Many motor officers will cite for a basic speed law violation, rather than exceeding the maximum speed limit. Your attorney can easily defend against basic speed law by careful questioning of the officer.

Prior to Court, you can have a trial by written declaration. Without telling a lie about your speed (don't even mention speed in your statement), you can ask that the officers testimony be excluded because he was hiding. If they find you guilty, you can ask for a new trial. If you wait as long as allowed to file all your paperwork it will be months before the trial is scheduled. The officer might not be interested in attending Court, and if he does not show, you win! Even if he shows, and you are found guilty, the judge can still allow traffic school. A good attorney is helpful here to persuade the judge that you are worthy.

Next, you need to curtail the speeding on the street. Please be considerate of other drivers and people on bikes and foot. Share the road, life will be less stressful. Come to the track if you want to press hard, go fast. Done right it is more fun than speeding.

Lastly, why do you need a girlfriend? You don't need a girlfriend before you are 25. Women will kill you dreams, make education difficult, and try to control your natural tendencies. Every woman has what you need, so why saddle-up and pick just one pony? Go have some fun before you get tied down.
