I've done some research on fighting tickets. I plan to pay the fine, but plead not guilty. But I am going to extend it until right before Xmas...and simply write in by declaration. I think I'd have a better shot because there are too many what ifs?
Judge might be pissed the day of in person trial...
Someone could piss him off right before I go up
Cop could be friends or friendly with judge
I could appear weak and lying because I get nervous
I have anxiety and don't do well in large groups, where I feel clastraphobic...
Plus I read the cop doesn't get paid to write his summary. I've already wrote my defense last night, dated in an e-mail. So I will be more accurate than he could ever be 3 months later with Xmas stuff weighing down on him. Plus if he never sees my face he might not remember anything about the incident.
On the other hand, I hope I don't screw myself and end up having to pay the MAX with no chance at traffic school PLUS court costs.
We shall see.
