Exceeding Speed Zone

[ajaysaklani]

Hi
I am in trouble. I was Driving thru Milwaukee on 15 April at night 11.30 and crossed the Speed limit to 68mph in 55mph zone. An officer ticketed me heavy fine-200+$(Adopting State Statute 346.57(5)). I am an Indian Citizen on Buisness visa here for 2 months. It was late night and I thought that the road has limit of 65. I respect the US Traffic rules and It was first time I did this mistake. I showed my Indian Driving License, Internatinal Driving Lincense and passport also. But I was cited for an unaffordable amount. Now my appearing date is 10th May (Appearance not required) But I have to leave US on 6th May because my company has booked the tickets already. Worst of all, I will be travelling out of city every week and will be in the city only on weekends or 2nd to 6th May.
Can anybody PLEASE PLEASE HELP me finding any way I can get my Fine waived or reduced by contacting an officer before my appearance date.

Thanks
Ajay

In our country, defendants don't contact the officer about their case. You could contact the prosecutor's office. The information is on your citation.

In some states, you can take an online traffic school to get the citation dismissed. Again, use the contact information provided on the citation.




Finally, ignorance or mistake won't allow you to eliminate or lessen this citation. Use the contact information provided on your citation!!!
