Message: [QUOTE="RM_guy, post: 640353, member: 20652"] Well he called the DA and they said he had to send something to them. I helped him with the is letter that he is going to be sending them. What do ya think? Dear Sirs, On August 10th, 2003 I received a speeding ticket (# ) in your county. I have submitted a plea of not guilty so I could have a chance to plea my case with you. First of all I want to state that I am not trying to shrug my responsibility. I have never received a speeding ticket before and I am willing to pay any fines that I am due. My concern is with how this will affect my insurance premiums. I am currently working my way through college and higher insurance premiums will greatly hamper my ability to pay my tuition as well as my other bills. My income comes from mowing lawns and holding down 3 part time jobs. When I was stopped, I was driving with the flow of traffic. It made me nervous that the flow was going as fast as it was but I was always taught to go with the flow so as not to disrupt traffic. I realize that is no excuse. What compounded my anxiety was that I was driving my show car, which is a high performance Mustang, and was concerned that I was driving with a target on me. Not that I feel I was singled out but I just felt that a flashy car is more likely to catch someone’s eye in a group of vehicles. I normally try to keep a low profile so as not to attract attention and not receiving any speeding tickets in my 5 years of driving can attest to that. I am concerned that the points associated with this violation will raise my insurance premium. As I stated above, I am willing to pay a fine but am requesting that you adjust the violation to one that minimizes the points that I will receive. I deeply regret speeding and accept the penalties but am asking you to take mercy in this case. I currently have no points on my license and am very proud of it. I was raised to respect and abide by the law but I am also human and make mistakes. I do learn from them though and this will be no exception. Thank you very much for hearing me out. I really do appreciate the opportunity to plea my case with you and hope for an out come that is beneficial to both of us. Sincerely, blah, blah, blah [/QUOTE]
