Want to beat a speeding ticket? Than be proactive from the moment you are pulled over. Be kind to the office (not overbearingly so), plead your ignorance to your speed and ask for a written warning. If this does not work, you must build you case immediately. If there is anything you can photograph at the scene to prove your innocence, do so. Also, ask to see the radar gun, and write down the model. Also write down where you were in relation to the officer when you were tagged, and write down whether the officer was stationary or in traffic. The officer's position can play a role in accurate readings. When you get your court date, file for a few delays, as your case is not that important, and the officer may just not show up for court, leading to a dismissal. Also, when in court, request the paperwork showing the radar gun used has been properly maintained and calibrated, and make sure that brand is proven accurate from the distance is was used on you. Finally, plead "not guilty" and ask to take driving school instead of getting a ticket, as courts commonly will comply with this request if you are eligible.
