I have read most of the threads on the forum for tickets. This is a great forum. U guys rock. Anyways, I got a ticket a week ago in NY state for driving 80 in a 55 it says on the ticket "speed pace" under description of violation. The court is clarkstown in the city of new city in Rockland County New York. I was one exit from the Tappan Zee bridge on 287. I have no argument I probably was going 80. So i dont mind paying any sort of fees. I am only worried about points. I am a 24 year old student who was driving my parent's car. They are from new jersey and my license is in new jersey. I was in their car and am not covered under their car insurance. So i dont want anything getting back to their record. I have researched and know that jersey does record any out of state moving violation as 2 points on ur license. So if i plead guilty it will def mess up my parent's insurance i am assuming. I am 24 and have a sparkling clean driving record. No violations at all. What would be the best thing to do? If i went to court would it be possible for it to be lowered to a fine with no points? Any suggestions would be great.Thanks
If interested in story behind ticket read on. Im not using it as an excuse, again i dont mind paying any sort of fees as much as they are, i just dont want points. T The story behind the ticket is i was behind someone doing the same speed as me. The cop was not behind me i know. As soon as i saw him i pulled out of the fast lane and slowed down to 70. He went by me got behind the person i was behind and put his sirens . Then changed lanes ahead of me. He waved me over to pull me over as well. He pulled over the exit which was very close. By the time i realized he was waving me over i almost slameed into the exit barrier to get on the exit. Very dangerous. He had us both pulled over. He was very stern and said i pulled u over for going 55 in an 80, took my info, and then walked away and gave me no chance to say anything. Then he gave me the ticket 5 min later and that was that. I dont really know if any of that story would mean anything in court.
