[QUOTE="makevelie187, post: 11704675, member: 29378"] So of my many tickets i have gotten though the years this is the one that i am a bit concerned about which is why i am posting here, all others i fully admitted guilt. I was driving down Highway 50 coming back from Lake Tahoe. speed limit is 65MPH, the officer put me down at 75, although i believe i was doing 80 but the flow of traffic was 75 so 10 MPH over reduced fine, that was nice of him to do that. The question i have is there is a long period of steep downhill road about 4 miles long on U.S. highway, 50 5-6% grade ( there are many steep parts this is just one of the many). Well this officer just happened to be sitting at the bottom of the hill ( literally at the bottom ) and around a corner but still on the freeway. While i had my cruise control set at 75 because that was the flow of traffic my car got up to 80MPH and bam i got a ticket, because of this downhill slope,although i should have been watching my speed more carefully. I know the officer was doing his job im just trying to get reference for court. I find it very frustrating that a cop would wait at the bottom knowing this would happen and happens all the time. Its natural for a car to adjust speed on a steep hill. I will contest the ticket as i do all of them and hope the cop doesn't show up but if he doesn't is there any argument i could have? Also i read the guidelines posted here for the donut shop, and it said sometimes a judge will drop the points for the driving record and just give a fine? i am more concerned about a point on my record as i am 24 years old and they have a good reflection on my insurance. I know this is solely up to the judge but how often is that given? has anyone seen it? because i haven't. Thank you [/QUOTE]
