Man... if he didn't have 6500 posts and acted more like a newbie around here, you guys would've ripped him a new one. Double standards suck. 116 dude, 116...

Wow. You were hauling some major a$$. I can't believe you only had to pay 251 bucks.

Yeah. Why aren't people flaming me for unsafe driving?? What if I was street racing?

 

[isaacmacdonald]

go to court. In NY, they almost always plea down to a lesser charge (less points, but usually = fine). Never, ever plead guilty.

The judge is going to laugh at you if that is your excuse...but you can indeed contest it.

"Ummm..officer...the ticket says my car is blue. Obviously it isn't blue. It is LIGHT blue."

Nice car. Needs new headlights though. It looks kinda aqua green to me.

Yes because of the city area. I don't live it Manhattan, but all boroughs are affected...

116 in a 70 in New York equals instant suspension. In NY, if you are 40 MPH or more over the speed limit, thats enough points on your license to get it suspended, to get a hefty fine, and arrested.

I don't think the total suspension happens until double plus over.
6 points isn't enough to get your license pulled, 8 is.

I just finished my drivers ed course. More than 40 over the speed limit is 11 points, and if you receive 11 or more points in a period of 18 months, your license is suspended.
