Traffic-speeding-ticketThere comes a time in our lives when we finally get that first taste of freedom. It comes in the form of a driver's license. Yes sir, once you turn 16 years of age you'll feel it. By this time you'll want your license so badly, and probably already have a car in mind. It's all part of growing up. Now, on the flip-side, you'll cringe with dread the first time you receive a traffic speeding ticket. When that patrol car flashes its lights and siren and you peer up in your rearview mirror, a wave of frustration will move over you. Sure you'll pull over, but you'll despise that officer for writing you a traffic speeding ticket. It's just the way we react. Here you were only going 20 over the posted limit, and this lame guy passes you a fine for it. Ah, I recall those days all too well.
I've got a good one for you. My 18-year-old daughter comes storming into the house the other day with a scowl plastered on her face. Naturally I inquired what was wrong, and she said she thinks she got a traffic speeding ticket. This threw me off. I told her "Hey, you either did or you didn't." Then she began telling me how she was driving normally beneath a green traffic light when suddenly a bulb flashed at her. Ah ha, it most likely took a picture. You've got to love those recent cameras posted at traffic lights to catch speeders. So basically she's worried that it snapped a picture of her car. When I asked her how fast she was going, she said 61. However, that is a 50 mile per hour zone. I suppose the camera did catch her in the act of speeding. Typically when this happens, you later receive a traffic speeding ticket in your mailbox. Hers will surely be coming any day now.
The best way to avoid a traffic speeding ticket is simply by NOT speeding. I understand that countless individuals claim this is so difficult, but I don't agree. I too drive and have been driving for over 15 years now, and it's really not hard to obey the speed limit. Plus it's worth it to avoid nasty traffic speeding tickets. If you do receive a speeding violation, you can always go to court to dispute it. Just make sure you have a case first.
