Hey, I'm wondering what I can possibly do for, and expect from a speeding ticket i just received.
This is what happened. I was on my bike (2003 yamaha R1) heading down the highway just messin around. There were a few cars in my way so I decided to pass them. I sped up, passed them, then right around the next corner was a cop parked along side the road. I saw him and decided not to stop, i sped off and turned into a camping ground to hide the bike for a few hours. I parked the bike behind a tree and started to walk off. About a half hour passed, then the i saw a patrol car pull into the camping ground. He spotted the bike and then spotted me. He came up to me and asked if that bike belonged to me. I said "no" and he asked if I had seen who had put it there. I said "no" again and told him i was camping and pointed to some random rv. Anyways, I saw him walk back to the bike and decided that lying was a bad idea, so I turned around and walked back to him to confess. He told me to have a seat on the park bench and he'd be back once he finished writing the ticket. After about 15mins of waiting he approached me and said he wasn't taking me to jail. gave me a ticked for $560 and 6 points off my license.
now i'm wondering, I have mandatory court next month. what can I expect. do i have to worry about going to jail for eluding? or is that something I only had to worry about while he was writing the ticket. I know I will probably lose my license for up to 3 months. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thank You!
