First speeding offense since I started driving

first off, what evidence is there? dos he have a picture of your car on their camera with the license plates showing and the measured speed next to it? If there is no evidence, doubt that what he said is right if you think you didn't drive that fast.

How much do you have to pay, what are the consequences? if its just money, well there is no problem with that at all, everybody has to pay at some point in their life.

you also shouldnt fear the police, it doesnt happen very often, that the police stops you because of something like this the next time around. Hell I drive since ten years and have only been stopped by police once.

You're right. He didn't provide evidence but he used a tracker for a few seconds before he deemed it necessary to pull me over. I really don't think I accelerated from 0 to 52 within 2 seconds...

Yes I'm just gonna pay the $139 and be done with it. But now that you said it, even as tired as I was, I wasn't swaying and I wasn't going into any other lanes. My eyelids didn't feel like lead either. If I accelerated that fast, it wasn't within 2 seconds.

>don't fear the police
I got pulled over recently a few Monday nights ago along the stretch of road that comes directly after because I was swaying a little bit with tiredness. I didn't get cited, I think he just wanted me to get home safely. They're being aggressive about that stretch of road.

I drive a car that is extremely sensitive to the touch. It's painfully easy and frustrating going over the speed limit. It's like I don't even have to press the accelerator: it seems to accelerate if I simply think about making it so. That's how sensitive my pedals are. Any frequent drivers can relate to this feeling? I ALWAYS keep checking my speed every few seconds and adjust accordingly. It's not like I have a lead foot

Sweetie, you're making shitty excuses. Your car isn't that sensitive or powerful. Even if it is, you should be used to it by now. If you can't fucking manage to drive without maintaining the correct speed, you're a shit driver. That's one of the most basic skills you learn. Just stop being an asshole, stop making excuses, and keep it within 10 mph of the speed limit.

The only nice thing about this: he made it say on paper that I was only going 40 in a 35mph zone, so it wouldn't go against my record, and so the fine wouldn't be as expensive.

But this is seriously why I severely limit distractions while driving. I LISTEN to the vehicle, I FEEL the contours of the road, I WATCH where I'm going (and my speed). I do all that so I be safe. Does anyone else do this?

Honestly it's not that big of a deal if you want to dispute it in Court you can dispute it anymore and just watch out for that one specific stretch of road that's all

>>18646704
Not gonna dispute. On that stretch of road I'll just be very careful

Money saved by time saved through speeding more than covers the tickets. (Job requires me to drive, the more KM I make the more I effectively get paid).

>What can I do besides become more terrified of cops
why would this make you terrified of cops? you broke the law and you got caught and punished, big surprise.

Sounds like cops are being assholes and using that road as speed trap. Happens too often by me. Just do what you said and be careful on that road, if it happens again ask for evidence that you were speeding, the cop will blow you shit but that's what they do don't be afraid of them, it's your right to ask and know.
