3rd speeding ticket, what now? HELP!

Question

I live in Rhode Island and i recently got my 3rd speeding ticket but for all 3 i was only written up for 10 mph hour. Will they still take my license away for 30 days?

Should I appear on the court date and plead guilty and see waht they say or should I just pay by mail and wait and see waht happens??

HELP

Answer 1

goto court and plead guilty it looks better, then stop speeding, oh and dont drive to court as they will take your license there and then

Answer 2

JUST PAY BY MAIL AND TRY DRIVING 5MPH MAYBE YOU WON'T GET A TICKET.....WHAT'S THE SPEED LIMIT UP THERE 2MPH?...LOL!

Answer 3

>>  Should I appear on the court date and plead guilty and see waht they say or should I just pay by mail and wait and see waht happens??

No offense but do you think it would make a difference.  If you got 3 speeding ticket, you will get a fourth and fifth if YOU DON'T CHANGE your habits.  That is the real important thing to do.

No change in behavior = eventual suspension. PERIOD.

Good luck...

Answer 4

What now?? How about stop speeding? Is your getting where you are going in such a hurry more important than the safety of everyone else on the road? You need to get a lawyer right away.  

Answer 5

What now? Stop digging your own grave and change your bad habbits. Speed limits are there for a reason

Answer 6

I got 3 tickets within one year.  I paid the first two, and contested the 3rd.   I didn't get my licence taken away on the third one even though I was over the (max) 10 points.  Either they don't care, or the cop didn't check.   I think they didn't care since that was the one I contested.

My friend is a cop and lots of people contest tickets.   You don't even need a lame excuse.  You'll arrive at the courthouse, sit down with the cop for 1 minute, tell him you can't afford it, he'll say O.K. and lower the price, but not the points.   You'll then go into the courtroom, along with all the other "little speed-law breakers" and they'll say "did you agree to this lower price?"   and they'll give you 30 more days to pay it.  Too easy.

That helped me out tremendously...financially-speaking.
