Re: Roadside Suspension

I agree drinking and driving is stupid, but having two beers and getting charged is also stupid, lets face it some people stone sober are worse at driving than a guy who had a bottle of liquor but I digress....I was with him he had two to three drinks in four hours in no way a danger to the road...w...

Re: Roadside Suspension

thanks for all the info I appreciate it, one more question though, does this 3 day suspension go on your insurance?
seems a little unfair that technically not being drunk or over .08 would get you into this kind of trouble

Re: Roadside Suspension

hmm...thats odd the cop didn't give him a suspension notice...

seems a little harsh, since when did breathalizers not give you the actual amount...it just gave him an A figure....no actual reading...

this seems like a dictatorship, you can't even contest the charge...how ridiculous

Re: No right turn during certain times

so I received my disclosure, nothing really there other than a picture of the sign, the time I made the turn and a note that the officer was standing outside directing vehicles to the side of the road for ticketing Now for a charge of disobeying a sign, the reason I even made the turn was because th...

Re: No Left Turn from a Dedicated Left Turn Lane

I think it can, if...

Re: Speeding ticket, convicted, want to appeal based on erro
