My question involves a speeding ticket from the State of: Washington
I recently got a ticket for going 91 in a 70 (I-90) in Grant County. I'm looking to get a deferral (I currently have a clean record, this was my first ticket), so I sent in the ticket requesting a mitigation hearing (which I'm under the impression is what I was supposed to do). Now, I live in Seattle, so I'm planning on doing this mitigation hearing by mail. However, I have no idea what I'm to write in the Statement of Defendant letter. Do I explain my circumstances, or do I simply acknowledge my speeding and request a deferral?
Thanks in advance!
