if you were speeding... you will be convicted!! You can hire a lawyer, lose, and just end up paying more money in attorney fees.
:?
Please. I used the Bose law firm with good success, so have many of my much less well mannered rider buddies. The salient issue you need to be concerned about is WHAT you said during the encounter. If you somehow tangibly admitted that you broke the law, you're getting convicted. If youkept your mouth shut when you needed to, you most certainly can win, orget a plea bargain to a lesser offense. You will have to prepare though. You can do this yourself if you have the willingness to dothe leg work, but if you aren't motivated, then hire a lawyer. I have prevailed using a lawyer, and not using a lawyer, and I've been partially successful not using a lawyer. It takes work to win w/o a lawyer in traffic court.
Remember, you will be on the hook for the civil remedial fees, plus the fine ( up to 2500 smackers as I recall ), possibly jail time if they want to make an example out of you which is not uncommon for speed over 90mph. Not to mention your insurance will go up for at least 3 years.
You can either surrender or fight.
23 at once. Clearly these nuts didn't have a clue. The short straw is the guy designated not to stop right away. He's the guy who gets the rest of the group off the hook. :dude:
