thanks for the info. in this case, my trail date is for tomorrow, can i still request for an extension and a trial be declaration? or is it too late to do this?

i'm no expert, but if 'trial date' is the date on your ticket, then probably. just go to the traffic offenses counter and ask.

Good luck, Tim. Was it CHP or City PD? What did he/she state in the narrative? Did they just cite you for 21703 vc or are the additional violations?

it was city pd. said that i was speeding doing 45 in a 35 and made some illegal lane changes but just cited me for 21703 vc. this was early a.m. during the work week.
i think the cop was being nice in his own way. but still a jerk for giving me a ticket instead of a warning.

That sucks the CHP aka (AAA with a gun) have had my arse, local might be a little nicer. I've had the Sheriffs give me more warnings then tickets. like jorge said plead out and take the 12 / 16 hr course, it kills the weekend but save your insurance. I actually had so many tickets back as a kid that no ins company would carry me, had to have the state appointment me one. due to the cost I rode a bike for 3 years until the 5 tickets in 4 months dropped off.
best of luck in a positive outcome.

Damn it Tim....

Looks like you will do just about anything to make me drive on all our fishing trips!

But then again, I've been in the car with you and even if I had no legs, no arms and blind in both eyes I may be the better driver.

My limited experience, they don't tell you all of your options in court, unless you ask. When you get your 3 seconds in front of the judge, don't let him rush you.

Ask for reduction in fine. I knocked a 450 dollar ticket to about 280.

Good luck.
