Careless driving

[PotenzaSub]

Hi,
Three months ago I get a ticket for careless driving. The cop told me I was doing 49 mph in a 25 mph school zone. (I had just gotten out of school, and the school zone I was in was for my school. lol) Anyway, what exactly does careless drving mean? Does it mean speeding excessively, or speeding even 1 mph over the speed limit in a school zone. I need to know what to prove I didn't do becuase my court date is on Thrusday.

-Thanks

if you were going that fast in a school zone what is your argument going be???It being you own school zone makes it worse.... dont waste your time if you were speeding just pleed guilty

I settled for a plead deal. $250 surcharge. $100 fine. plus court costs. $389 total. I prbly could have gotten something a little less, but w/e

Oh, and I was going to argue that I actually wasn't endangring anyone's safety since the bell had wrong just before I got pulled over and there were not kids present.
