Eigentlich sagt es das er 23 km/h drueber war. Aber mit dem erlaubten Mangelquotient hat er 6 km/h Verguenstigung bekommen. Er hatte Glueck. Manche geben nur 3 km/h.

hey quit it. hgerhardt, i'll rescan the ticket. believe me, i wasn't using the german thing as an excuse, just a funny way of saying i don't know what the ticket says. being an attorney myself, i know ignorance is no excuse, but hey i'll say the only phrase i know in german......

Der Höhepunkt der Fete war der Gruppenfick danach!!!!!!!!! hiyoooooooo!

^^^ No sh*t.

Plus you're asking advice from a bunch of yahoos like us on a car forum.

Really, why not just pay the stupid thing? You got a ticket, you were speeding. So pay up. Write it off as traveling expenses or something if you're that cheap or broke. Is everybody broke here?

You're not going to get some prize for "look at me, I dissed the authorities." Do you want me to send you a gold star to put on your bumper for "fooling the Swiss?"

Plus you have no clue where life might take you. A job in Switzerland? Meeting a Swiss girl? Why increase your odds of any future anxiety over a few lousy Euros.....

Thank you Google Translate and Urban Dictionary!

I now know what the German slang pflaume means! I learn so much from this site.

wow, danielmccabe (what does that even mean?), youre blowing my mind on this one. I would set up a court date, learn german and swiss, go back to switzerland, bring your well-thought out argument to court, and bang these guys into submission. I mean, they expect YOU, a man who spends 90K on a car to pay a $200US speeding ticket? Do they think money just grows on trees in the U.S.? Paaaaleez, get that round trip business class ticket and a couple of nights at the Four Seasons in Geneva and show those *****es some manners. You will surely get out of the ticket and save yourself the money. I feel it.
Just my .02.

Chances are you are going to do another European Delivery so just pay it. Its $150 bucks, no big deal.

Go to your bank and have them wire the money to the account number listed on your ticket.

.....and don't forget to be sure to get back a mailed receipt/acknowledgment that it's been paid and processed by the authorities.
