    Default Speeding Ticket, Officer Lies

    Hello,

    I have a good friend of mine who was "clocked" at 51 in a 35 zone today. The ticketing too place in Ohio, but the friend lives in PA. Now the officer was coming in the other lane and claims to have used Radar to clock it. The friend was only truthfully doing about 5 or 6 over the legal limit at the time, also, there were several cars in front of the vehicle. The ticket cost is over $300 and is causing financial difficulty. Is there anyone that can be done to get rid of the ticket?

    How fast was your "friend" going before he came upon the other several cars? Some radar devices (Applied Concepts Inc. Stalker Dual) can see down the road to the fastest moving vehicle. Which part did the officer lie about? I would suggest to you that the officer did not lie just to give your "friend" a $300.00 ticket. If he did not stop your speeding "friend" there would be someone else's speeding "friend" right behind them. Speeders are a dime a dozed, fish in a barrel.

    All the best!

    Your friend can contest the ticket and try to win. Or, he can see if he is eligible for traffic school (if available in PA) and use that to mitigate the impact.
