City of Denton Traffic Court
Can anybody that's been to Denton City traffic court share their experience with me? I got a speeding ticket last night despite the fact that I wasn't speeding, and I plan to take it before a judge.
Thanks.
Thanks.

Why would the officer say you were speeding when you weren't?
I've had my pickup for over 2 years and now that I own a GPS do I realize that with the speedo needle directly on the mark of the posted speed, it reads up to 5 MPH slow... Just saying, I did not know I was speeding till I got the device.

The officer was mistaken or lying. I was going slower than the traffic around me.
My ticket alleges I was going 47 in a 35. If my speedometer were off by that much, you'd think I'd have gotten a speeding ticket in the 3 years I've owned this car.

OK, just was an idea... I was traveling down southlake blvd and i was literally picked out of a crowd to get a speeding ticket... As I was getting pulled over, I was like WTF, cause I had no idea why I was getting pulled over. I just got the deferred and called it a day as i did not feel fighting it was worth the time off work or personally.
It still sucks though man

It does suck. I almost wish I was speeding. If that were the case, I would just do defensive driving or deferred and be done with it.
I'm pretty sure he decided I was the one speeding because of the yellow sportscar.

basically go on ur court date, say ur innocent. They will reschedule for a meeting with the prosecutor. Talk to him about it, and if the officer isn't there with the prosecutor it will most likely be dropped.
