I wasn't going that fast but I got the ticket. He hit my friends in a srt4 and a turbo civic but gave me the ticket. Well I probably won't be at any meets (MAYBE make the ford show, in ocala, maybe not) any time soon. I might lose my license but I doubt that, I will be paying out da butt for it though. Ya'll can come visit me though.

Most likely you got the ticket because your car is red. I won't buy a red car.

Red and got wheels,and stickers,etc... Friend's srt4 is red as well. Yeah, I won't buy another red car after this one (or atleast not for a while, I do like red). I hope the judge is nice, he probably won't believe me when I say I wasn't going 85, I was speeding but not that fast. This is the wrong time for this to be happening. It sucks.

Solution: NO. It didn't matter if I was speeding at all, if I was in that lane, I was getting the ticket. He clocked my friends, going faster than me, and gave me their ticket.
And hector, thing here is I'm under 21, state of georgia is stupid about 24+ over and under 21.

Take it from me! if you are speeding over 25mph over the posted speed limit you will lose you license for a 6 month period.if you are under the age of 21. the under 21 law is a bia bia.
there is a few ways around that.
one. if its the first ticket you have ever gotten you can knock like 12 mph off the ticket, only works on the first one. must not have any other tickets of any kind.
two. talk with a lawyer or public " pretender " to see if taking a defensive driving class will keep you from losing you license.
Three. if there is a mistake on the ticket like the wrong date or 85mph in a 35 when the offence happend in a 55 mph zone.
four. show up to court and if the arresting officer doesn't show the case can get thrown out
five. cry like a bia bia and see if the judge has merse on you.
other than that your SOL hate to say it but its the truth.
don't feel to bad i got a 120mph in a 55 zone back when i was 17.cost me my license for 12 months

One: Not first, it's second. First one was dismissed. Mom said something about judge said if I get another than the first one will come back or some crap. We'll see.
Two: Probably gonna go for community service/classes whatever. He'd be a real **** to take my license, sorta hard to get to college or back home without it. Or have a job, no job and I'll just sit in dorm drinking and smoking all next semester.
Three: Not really, it has to be a serious mistake to get outta it. Not even miscopied license number, car info, or incorrectly written date can you outta most tickets in most states.
Four: Not in georgia, they don't have to show up,,, atleast not for the first hearing anyways.
