"The cost of the speeding ticket in texas in not so much..."

The cost of the speeding ticket in texas in not so much. you can read at the back of the speeding ticket that you have. it will cost approxiamtely 100$ but the problem arise when you are given the speeding ticket for the second time because it can sieze your license for that also and you can be caught also for rush driving.

Q. What is the best approach for defending myself in a jury trial for a speeding ticket in texas?
ticketed for speeding - 86 in a 55 mph zone; no radar proof; i insist, but can't prove, that i wasn't traveling even close to that speed; texas dps officer wrote the citation; occurred in weekday drive-home traffic on a major expressway through small south texas towns; multi-lane traffic both directions. fyi: i met with the asst. da and the court coordinator. the ada reviewed my options with me and i chose a jury trial. yes, that was truly one of my options. a date was set; however, a day before the hearing, it was "postponed indefinitely." i have not yet heard back from the court coordinator. it's been about 3 weeks. i have no clue what "postponed indefinitely" means. sounds weird, doesn't it? ps: by the way, if i stated that i was not traveling 86 in a 55, it's the truth. i'm not a liar. 86 is pretty damn fast, and 30+ miles over the speed limit is quite excessive. i think i would be aware of doing that on a sober day on my after-work commute home. it's a route i've driven for nearly 5 years, so i'm well aware of the typical conditions, driver tendencies, my driving tendencies, etc.

where i live, they don't use juries for traffic trials, those are only held before judges. the only thing that could cause your case to be dismissed would be if the officer who issued the citation did not appear, since he/she is the only witness for the prosecution. you will be under oath when you testify, so you have to tell the truth of the situation, all you can do is hope for leniency from the judge. i seriously doubt it will be a jury.

Q. How much is an average texas speeding ticket?

Q. Is it possible to do a trial by written declaration for a texas speeding ticket?
i recieved a speeding ticket for going 80 in a 65 zone. is it possible to request a trial by written declaration for the ticket since i live in texas and i got the ticket in a city that is about 5 hours away from my house. i am 16 and still have my revisional license (if that changes anything)...thanks!

most likely, you'll have to appear in person. usually you either have to hire an attorney to appear on your behalf or appear in person. things are different from jurisdiction to jurisdiction and court to court. so what you need to do is call the court and ask them.

Q. Speeding ticket in texas overdue can it be tracked in canada?
i am a us citizen n i got a speeding ticket in texas inwhich was due to be paid last march ok so its not paid..i assume i have a warrant? now i am going to canada ..if i were to get pulled over in canada..will it show up ? just wondering i intend on paying it just didnt want to do it this week.

If Canada is linked with NCIC, it will show up. I doubt very much that the warrant would be enforced.

Q. How much would a speeding ticket cost in texas?
how much would a speeding ticket be if i was going 97mph in a 70mph zone in texas?

"Speeding 25 mph above the speed limit is $185..."

actually lol, they can arrest you for that. Speeding 25 mph above the speed limit is $185, anything over (in your case 27 mph) is subject to a different set of laws, because the ticket cost listed only goes upto 25 mph. So either you got arrested or you got lucky and had a $185 fine.

Q. Why must i disclose personal financial information when i pay a speeding ticket in texas now?
the court sent me papers to fill out, for a speeding ticket! they now want ss #'s, a financial statement, including bank account #'s, income, etc. why does the court systme need these, when i am paying my fine by cash? especially for just a speeding ticket.

"62 ford station wagon and 2006 porsche both speeding / who gets the ticket..."

The selective enforcement of traffic citations is the way the government can be sure that you have the resources to be able to pay the fine or post the bond. GA is a state that takes into account whether you LOOK like you have the Cash to pay the fine .ie: 62 Ford station wagon and 2006 Porsche both speeding / Who gets the ticket ? Right Porsche They want info to see if the cops are picking the right car to stop. They will adjust and keep adjusting until only the ones with means get stopped. You will never see them stop and 18 wheeler.

Q. What is the statue of limitations on a speeding ticket in texas?
my husband received a ticket back in february of 1998. he does not remember receiving one nor paying it. we have received nothing on this ticket in the past almost nine years. today we received a letter from the court issuing a warrent for my husbands arrest. this is the first information on this ticket we have ever received. isn't there a time limit on when they can issue a warrant and if so, where can i find documentation on this so we can fight this ticket?

"Does he remember getting stopped for the ticket..."

Does he remember getting stopped for the ticket? His signature would be on the original ticket. If so, go pay it. If the ticket isn't his then go dispute it and have it removed from his record.

Q. I got a speeding ticket in texas and the officer wrote the wrong date of the traffic ticket?

The tickets written before and after yours would prove the date on your ticket to be an error.
