The other nite it was 11PM, and i was pulling out of the parking lot onto an empty street. while turning hit a wet spot and gassed it, resulting in a bad drift. a cop pulled me over and got me for careless driving. since it was very wet and was accidental, is there any way i can fight the ticket. i know that i wont get off scot free but maybe pay a higher fine and get the pts off...

thanks,
ray

 

The woods is very vague as far as locations go

If you are in the states, I would highly recommend getting a lawyer. More than likely he can have it reduced to something that won't affect your insurance.
Traffic school is also a option depending your location.

Good Luck!

 

Sorry, this is Off Topic. Moving to OT

 

There's a book on this, but basically if you weren't going fast and could reproduce the same effect at a lower speed it should be enough proof to let it slide.

 

Fight it in court. Take your chance, he might not sure up...BTW, do a search for "fighting tickets" you will find many useful info as this topic has been brought up many times. Good luck though.

 

You might also show up early too.

 

traffic laws are state laws and each state is different. would help a lot if your i.d. info indicated where you live...
