The make/model won't matter if they have the vin. I got a parking ticket on my bike and he had no idea what it was so he wrote down Tokico (that's who makes the brake calipers) for the make and motorcycle for the model.

You can't fight a moving violation in this situation since you were actually rolling across the stop sign. The Car's detail won't be enough to dismiss this and yes (like the others said) you'll piss off the judge.

Pay the ticket --

If you were getting a speeding ticket, then you may or maynot have a chance to fight it. In court show up, ask for a reduced fine and state that you may not have enough money to pay -- but you got a new car so that might be out the window.

Good luck friend, and I hope the legal system doesn't bite you in the ass.

On a similar note -- California Speed limits are a "suggestion" and not an absolute limit. So you may be able to fight the ticket when speeding. Look up www.ticketassassin.com

Got a lawyer, ticket gone and I cant afford to have my premium go up. In the long run I saved money. However it was a 300$ lawyer fee that could have been avoided. Oh well it was a costly lesson. For those saying I'm some 16 year old, nice try. I'm 18 in college working two jobs to make payments and pay for insurance. I didn't have to get a Frs. Coulda got something cheap but whatevs. No regrets. And no my parents didn't buy my car. I'll die before someone buys my love. I worked hard to get where I am, don't assume I was sponsored by mommy and daddy because of my age

Well that's what you get for doing a California Rolling Stop in Washington.

I'm sure you have a good reason for refusing to share the citations. A more skeptical person might think that you don't know what the hell you're talking about.

If the situation was that you received a speeding ticket, technically that is an unconstitutional law and you can therefore fight that and win.

I have a long time friend, he is an engineer living in California, who has challenged TWO speeding tickets and due to its unconstitutionality his tickets were waived. No need to pay and nothing was on his record. It really comes down to whether or not you principally believe it is worth spending time on defending yourself.

Good luck!

Writing it out will not do justice, that is why I consulted with attorneys face to face. I simply made a side note and planted a seed.

I must have made an impression on you, however, so I appreciate the flattery. If you are feeling particularly motivated to enlighten yourself you should DEFINITELY do so, on your own. Though part of me doubt you will bother...

I am happy I was able to influence you and spark such an interest!

But I am not waiting because I am already ahead...

peace & love.

No. You didn't, aside from pointing a finger at the entire document. But thanks for playing!

And I also don't plan on putting myself in the situation where I will need to consult a lawyer on constitutional law in order to get me out of a speeding ticket which would likely be earned. Is it lazy of me? Maybe. Do I need to do it? No, which is why I am asking you. Given your previous (albeit questionable, given lack of details) experience, you should be easily able to find your specific source that you interpreted to get yourself out of a ticket on Constitutional grounds.

Your callous, superior attitude (dare I say "troll-like?") is the problem here. If I state an opinion or little-known fact, and someone asks me for my sources, I provide them, specifically. In my line of work (engineering/sales) you better DAMN well be ready to back up any claims you make with specific citations. I would never have been able to make it through school if I had just pointed to "this paper" or "that report" as my sources.

What you are claiming sounds like an interpretation of a portion of the Constitution of the USA (assuming that is what you are citing, you weren't even that specific). Please give us the Paragraph, at least the Section that you are referring to. Allow us to do what all great lawmakers have done since the inception of the United States of America, and debate the meaning. This is the last time I will ask.

Its nice to hear another young person working for what they want and doing it without mommy and daddy. People talked shit when i bought my FR-S with my own sweat and money but thats usually because they are jealous.
