1. when you call to plead not guilty, theyll send an envelope to your house than anyone who has gone to court before will recognize immediatley.
2. Once the ticket is written, and in the system, it would take a very good connection to get out of it. like your dad being the judge. The only way "knowing people" helps is before you get the ticket. Your choices are 2 pts and 85$, and like stated 400-450 and no points. Never take the points. But also, you can only do that once within a 1 year period and twice within 5 years or something like that. I havent gotten a ticket in a while. So next time, you are stuck with the points
3. 99% of tickets are just plain ignorance. I hated the cops here for so long till i finally relized through my dad losing his license because of ignorance, that it is just that. They will do anything they can to make sure you and other people dont DUI, including going over the top. It is more important than it seems and untill you or someone close to you is injured or killed by a DUI driver, you will prob not truly understand how important it is for them to act like they do.
