A co-worker once told me that when I’m old I won’t have to change much. I already drive like a grandma. Well, I’ve got a story for her.
We hadn’t gone much more than a mile from home today when I got pulled over. I didn’t even know what I’d done wrong.
The officer told me I was going 40 miles an hour on a road posted at 30. Residents in the area have been complaining about the fast traffic. He gave me a speeding ticket.
I’ll be out $121 if I pay it. What will happen if I contest it? Is there a realistic chance of getting it overturned?

I am told i also drive like a grandma…but i like to be safe. If your insurance might go up, look into traffic school. Perhaps this is a CA thing, but I rec'd a ticket for running a stop sign a couple years ago and went to traffic school (online) so that my insurance wouldn't go up.
Hmmm…I have to say I haven't ever gotten a moving violation, but I have always paid my parking tickets though I did not like it.
If guilty pay it, if not contest is my opinion. Ok my turn. The first day in New Mexico (moved from Calif.) I got pulled over and like you was going over by about 10 mph; I apologized profusely saying I was new here. He let me go! I knew then we were going to like it here.
