Question about traffic ticket
- Thread starter stinkynuts
- Start date
fernie said:Dude, why are you giving advice if you don't have any expertise in this area? You might as well be telling buddy to bend over.
Fernie
Because I do have expertise in the area.
stinkynuts said:Just to clarify, I only got one ticket per infraction. He said that if I provided documentation, the traffic ticket would not be processed.
It has been four weeks since I got the ticket. I was told that I could not arrange a court date until after ten days since I got it. That is why I waited, and I got busy with work so I haven't called them yet.
Stinky, I'm still not clear. Did he say the two tickets you did get would be dropped, or that he wouldn't pursue the illegal turn?

As a cop or prosecutor maybe cause it would seem you aren't on the defendants side of things.

Fernie
I'm on reality's side of things. And I was neither a cop nor a prosecutor.
JohnFK said:He can? I thought if not served personally at the time he stops you, then it's no good.
And that would be wrong. It must be served personally, but within 30 days after the alleged offence occurred. It's just easiest for them if they do it on the spot.

He said he wouldn't pursue the illegal turn.
Anyway, the 15 days are long past over, and so now I have to mail in the fines. Hope it's OK.

How long exactly has it been since the incident?
Understood but SN said...fernie said:The cops don't tend to do it this way anymore. The prosecutor tends to just withdraw the tickets if you bring the paperwork when you attend to book a trial date. You have ti attend within 15 days of getting the ticket though.
Fernie
It sounds like the cop would have pulled the tickets otherwise I can't imagine why he would tell SN to "bring the documents in"...sn said:He said that he would give me a break, and told me that he would cite me for not having my license and permit, but that I should bring the documents in to show that I have them.
My X forgot to put the insurance card in her vehicle and got pulled over. She set up a court day and the ticket just got thrown out before trial... It seems like a wasted process for the courts.
Why are you mailing in the fines ? set up a court date at the poa office and read the case law when you get your disclosure! it's that simple.
fernie said:It's probably 15 business days so you should get your ass down to the court to file the paperwork. Sheesh. Cop gives you a abreak and you blow it.
Fernie
it's not 15 business days, it's 15 days.
