It really all depends on where you got the ticket. If you’re from the 757 area and you got it Va. beach... your screwed. Because they recently passed a law that if you get reckless (which is 20 and over) weather its your first offense or your tenth you get 30 days jail time (they usually suspend 28 days) but still who wants to do jail time for speeding???? Not to mention the fines up the ass they add on top of throwing your ass in jail. That’s crazy to me like the jails aren’t already over populated... but that’s a whole other story.
Any wayz moving on.............if you got a ticket some where else like Hampton for example (that’s where i got my last one) then you can possibly luck out if you choose to use the info. I’m going to share with you.
See not that long ago i was in a similar situation as you. I don’t know what your record looks like but mine is at -24 and at this point i shouldn’t even be driving but i got a few good judges and got lucky and still manage to be driving legally. But if i got any tickets for any reason be it not coming to a complete stop at a stop sign my license would be gone for a very long time. And me being the chronic speeder i am not comprehending what i was risking by speeding. Got another damn ticket and was hella stressed about loosing my license along with my job because I wouldn’t have any way to get there and my new car cause id have no money to pay for it. One night when i was stressing out to a friend about the situation He shared something with me that night that probably would have saved my ass (if the cop had not lost my ticket and the whole thing hadn’t gotten dropped outta court *reminiscing on how lucky my ass is right now* lol).
So yea this whole long post has a point. There Is this little place in Va. beach hidden behind a big building Called Speedometer Calibration Center Incorporated. And maybe just maybe your speedometer off just a little and if its even off by a few notches... that could be enough to get your ticket dropped from reckless driving to faulty equipment. And the punishment for faulty equipment is a minor fine and NO POINTS get added to your record. So if you got $35 and you think your speedometers off (which most are if you know what I’ saying) and your interested……… private message me and ill hook you up with an address and maybe a phone number

well actually it depends o how much it is off.if it's off a few notches as you said the judge may drop the recless but only those few notches....so for example you going 75 in a 55 and you're of a few....you'd maybe get somethin like 70 in a 55 and a reduced charge for speeding.still points on your record...still screws you on insurence.Oh yeah, and also the court only has to accept a vehicle calibration one time for an offense after that your fair game.but it all comes down to the testimony of you and the officer and the judges opinion on what your sentence should be....just a little FYI

True when it comes to all that legal shit your fate is really left in the hands of the judge and the cop......... and the outcome of it all really does depend on their mood for that day. But I’m telling you go to this place pay the 30 bucks get your speedometer checked out and get a lawyer i would almost guarantee you’ll get off with faulty equipment and maybe even get out of it completely if you’ve only had a few offenses.
