Nobody ever intend to get a speeding ticket. However, there are police and you will tend to speed. A speeding fine can result in an car insurance rate hike and points on your driving record. There is a way to avoid these fines by pleading to go to driving school. In order to have your ticket dismissed by going to driving school requires State authorities to grant permission. The date of your appearance in court should be written on your ticket. Mailing the following items to court can request permission: • A non-abridged copy of the affidavit with your original signature. • A copy of your policy of insurance. • Administrative court fees. • Proof of a valid driver's license that is non-commercial. When the court gives you permission to
A DMV hearing takes place at the DMV, not the court, and focuses on license suspension and revocation.

This only leads to another line, and another wait. This has to be the most unpleasant part of a speeding ticket. In addition, paying for traffic school is also a disagreeable experience. If you wait to see the judge, you may be on your way after paying the fine. If the judge is kind, and offers a traffic school option, the unpleasantness continues.
Also, she received less moving tickets than the incompetent driver in Edwards who had eleven moving tickets and two DUIs, and the driver in Hornady Truck Line who received six speeding tickets. Yet, it does not mean she can drive properly. Tickets of disregarding the traffic control device, running the red light, and driving without license show her careless and reckless personality which one would not expect to see from a competent driver. Also, she got all those tickets in two months, comparatively short time for receiving comparing to the driver in Hornady Truck Line who received six speeding tickets in four years and the driver in Edwards who receive all the tickets during sixteen years. The high frequency of receiving a comparatively large number of tickets may be able to show her incompetence to operate and control a car properly, as illustrated by her failure to turn with road and lost control of the car in this
On top of that there are also some hefty fines that will help a driver learn his or her lesson. The average speeding ticket in the US is 150 dollars, but the faster a person drives the more costly a speeding ticket becomes. Drivers have the choice to fight their citation in court instead of just paying the fine, a lot of speeding drivers often do. If the driver decides to do this, the officer then assigns them a traffic court date. Drivers who take their fine to court normally do so because they disagree with the reason they were pulled over or believe they have a justifiable explanation for speeding. There is not good reason for speeding hence the saying “better late than never”. A driver who goes to court usually ends up paying the fine they received in the first place along with court fees. Not to mention the effects a speeding ticket has on one’s insurance. Just one speeding ticket can skyrocket an average policy holder’s premium as much as 22 percent according to an analysis of over 490,000 policy quotes. There are a lot of things that money could be spent on than a speeding ticket. Most states also employ a points system and when an individual acquires a certain amount of points (ten points in most states) the state will suspend an individual’s license. Now the driver can take a Defensive Driving course to deduct 2 points from their record, this can be done once every 24

The legalization of marijuana has been a highly debated topic for many of years. Since the first president to the most recent, our nation’s leaders have consumed the plant known as weed. With such influential figures openly using this drug why is it so frowned upon? Marijuana is considered a gateway drug, a menace to society, and mentally harmful to its consumers. For some people weed brings a sense of anxiety, dizziness, or unsettling feeling. Like alcohol, tobacco or any other drug, those chemicals may not respond well with their body. For other people marijuana brings joy, a sense of relief, and takes the edge off of every day stress. For those who are associated with cannabis, purposes usually range from a relaxant, or cash crop, to more permissible uses such as medicine, and ingredient to make so many other materials. We now need to look at what would change if marijuana were legal. Benefits to the economy and agriculture, health issues, and crime rates are three areas worth looking at. Deliberating on the pros and cons of this plant we can get a better understanding for marijuana. From there it will be easier to make a clear consensus on what is best for the nation.
From first-hand experience, one should easily realize that the common man would feel negativity toward raising speed limits. People fall into this trap because the general public is often mislead into believing that abolishing speed limits on highways will only cause more harm than good. People often are the victims of misunderstanding and people rarely observe the advantages offered by increasing the speed limit to a safe level.
I received a speeding ticket on Sunday April 22, 2018 at 1:31 pm while on my way home from Canada where I had spent a few days out of my school vacation week (April 15-21). I was pulled over on the I-90 E Interstate Highway for reportedly driving 85 in a 65-mile zone. I figured I was speeding but was completely unaware of the actual speed I was driving prior to getting pulled over. Prior to Sunday’s offense, I was never issued a speeding ticket and only did so moments after being switched out to drive by a friend who accompanied myself and sister on our vacation trip at the service station a few miles away from where I was pulled over by the state trooper. I am currently a Clinical PsyD. Student at the William James College in Newton MA, and

Imagine you’re driving down the highway, and you’re speeding. You get pulled over and the cops ask you to get out of the car, the next thing you know you’ve been shot (Que Rainey). You know speeding is a crime, but since when is it punishable by death? In the year 2017, 223 Black people were killed in the United States by Police Officers, when not committing a serious crime. The case of Patrick Harmon is racial profiling, it lead to his death.
Getting a driver’s license is one of the most monumental moments in a teenager’s life. When I turned 16, I was so excited to be able to get my permit. But unlike any other teen, I put off getting my permit until long after I was eligible in fear that I wouldn’t pass my permit test. Of course, this was a ridiculous thing for me to let get in my way of getting my permit, but I let it anyways. After six months of torturing myself with the thought of “what if I fail the permit test?”, I went to the DMV and passed my permit test on the first try. Three months later, my mom and I got into a pretty serious car accident. At the time of the accident I was not driving, but I was so stunned by the incident that on the car ride home when my dad picked
Imagine driving on I-75 as cars race by you at a blink of an eye. You are driving 60 miles per hour, the speed limit; they must be doing 100 miles per hour or more. This is not an illusion; this is the reality of driving on a highway. Believe it, it happens everyday. Cars race down the road at uncontrollable speeds that cause tickets, accidents, and sadly death. Speed limits are a must for traffic control, for safety in neighborhoods and for avoidance of collisions.
The primary point of traffic laws is safety, but also keeping order. Following traffic laws is one of the most essential aspects of driving and can increase your safety as well as of the people around you. Knowing the traffic rules in our region and applying them can prevent us from getting involved in an car accident and save us the pain and costs of a traffic ticket due to a violation. If we didn’t have any traffic laws there would be chaos on the roads and many disasters could happen.
