I advise that you pay it and move on. It’s the cheapest option in the long run. You do not deny she was doing 77 in a 65. She just got caught.
Both times I’ve received speeding tickets, I had my cruise control set to 8 mph above the speed limits. Both times trucks had slowed down in front of me, and I passed them on the left, only to clear their grill and see a radar gun pointed at me.
I have since learned that very few things make trucks slow down, and now I always slow down when behind one instead of speed past them. :)
Agreed.
A great many truck drivers are your best friend on the roads.
EXACTLY! When I took my CDL’s, I learned from the former trucker/instructor... they’ll go 10 or 15 over unless they know something you don’t know. Then you better slow down too.
I learned that about truckers a long time ago. I was a young sailor driving from home (eastern NC) to Fort Gordon, GA for a service school in May of 1979. I got in between two trucks on the freeway between Columbia and Augusta (I think) and was moving down the road fast. Then the trucks started slowing down. I pulled out to pass the one in front then thought better of it and slipped back in between. As we rounded a curve I saw the 4-car speedtrap up ahead.
ha, the trucks had slowed down because there was a policeman? Makes sense.
I agree — she should pay it. I always think, when I get a ticket, that I deserve about 10 for every 1 I get. Or I deserve 100:1. You can take an online course and it won’t go on your record/ at least here in California.
