Well,
Like the title says, I was traveling north to Atlanta on I85 and for about 15 miles the interstate is reduced from 4 lanes to 2 lanes on the north bound side and the posted limit is 50mph due to construction zone/workers present. On the morning I was doing 73mph basically keeping up with traffic but was coming off of a hill at the time, there were no workers present but there was a Coweta county deputy.
Since it is a construction/worker zone, this ticket would have a higher fine above the speeding fine. I have never went to court to argue a ticket, but would like the additional fine for workers present dropped. Is this worth arguing?? It hasn't been long enough for the ticket and fine to be posted, so I don't know how much more it will be, but I think it is a few hundred bucks.
What do yall think I should do in this situation?? .... other than obeying all posted traffic signs, etc....
What is the likelihood of the worker's present fine dropped and just pay the speeding??
