Please advise on how to handle this without getting points .

Any referral to a traffic lawyer will be greatly appreciated

25 over the limit in a construction zone.

How much do lawyers normally charge for something like this

Ronan

OK..You call the following Lawyer in Syracuse : Thomas Ryan: (his email is defender8@aol.com) He is based in Syracuse and is truly excellent. Depends on the case but it will be US$250 if its straightforward. He is a standup guy and I have used him several times. He will also tell you the likely outcome. He has always been successful for me.
Here is his website:

I got a speeding ticket in Marathon NY State..

It does not have any $ dollar amount to the fine...was curious if it was worth fighting or just sending in a guilty plea?

Always drive close to the speed limit or use a radar detector in upstate NY.

Bastards love preying on Canadians.

(1) if you have a speeding ticket without a fine it means they will fix the fine in court. You will get points transferred to Ontario if you are convicted. Translate your speed to KM and the point s wil be the same as if you were here.

(2) Chris: No question about it. I set my cruise at 124Km/h which appears to be the tolerance limit. I got nailed last year because I gassed up, merged back onto 1-90 and had not set the cruise yet. He was just after the service plaza and nailed me for 130km/h. I used a lawyer successfully. I used to use radar but they do a lot of POP radar and only pick you off at the last second. I had a Valentine, but it made me too confident. Now I just use cruise control. I drove ti NYC one time and counted 22 speed traps. God knows how many i missed.

yup they got me too a couple of yesars ago on the I90 .. completely left the NY plate guy that blew past me to pull me over .... 85 in a 65 .. mph .... that construction ticket will be big bucks ... and if you get another your license will be suspended .. call the lawyer..

Went through NY last month to go to Maryland and Virginia (I-87 to I-90 to I-88 to I-81S) and saw 14 or 15 troopers out and about 50% had cars pulled over. It was nuts! I am really careful to run about 70 mph and not much faster.

they love preying on exotics... i thought i was safe as i was following a rav 4 that was even faster than me---if this was a toronto cop he would have helped out but not the yanks

theiceman

it is not about exotics .. it is about taking money from out of state drivers and not upsetting the local voting constituants

IHATECLAIMS

Noticed the exact same thing. Every little while there was either someone pulled over on either side or a trooper with radar waiting. It was a little ridicuous....

I was speeding...but was in the right hand lane and many many cars going faster than me in the passing lane, you may be right.

I was just going to send it in, ut may be a better idea to fight it

Thanks
