Fighting a speeding ticket takes a clear understanding of what you need to do to prove your innocence. To be successful in fighting your ticket, you need to build your case immediately, starting the moment you are pulled over. Document the incident, and be sure to capture the factors you feel prove your case. If eyewitness accounts bolster your claim, write them down and collect contact information. If there is road, traffic or weather conditions that prove you did not deserve the ticket, write them down and/or photograph them as well. Inspect the ticket! It could contain errors that are cause for a dismissal. If you feel the ticket was the result of a bad reading, exercise your right when in court request and inspect the service records for that particular radar gun to see if it was kept up-to-date with its calibration. And when in court, be aware of any alternative plea bargains available that could lead to a dismissal of your ticket.
