LOL...NO! That's what I'm telling you. Tracker is a device installed in the cruiser that allows them to manually flip a switch on and off as you pass over spots on the road. It's nothing more than a fancy stopwatch that does other calculations. There's nothing for a radar detector to pick up. Something like the Valentine will only help you on roads like the PA Turnpike where a state trooper hits you with radar. It's much more useful in NJ and other states that use radar more widely.

I am thinking of a four letter word that begins in 'F' and ryms with 'UCK'

WhiteXFire · 12-09-2005, 08:37 AM

3362
Exceeding maximum speed (Miles over Speed Limit): 6 to 10 over, 2 points
11 to 15 (if violation occurs in an active work zone, 15-day suspension) and 3 points
16 to 25 (if violation occurs in an active work zone, 15-day suspension) and 4 points
26 to 30 (if violation occurs in an active work zone, 15-day suspension) and 5 points
31 and over Departmental Hearing and Sanctions provided under Section 1538(d) and 5 points
(if violation occurs in an active work zone, 15-day suspension)

white2000neon · 12-09-2005, 08:40 AM

Damn 5 points but he didnt say anything about a departmental hearing but im gonna try to fight it to try and lose the points.

WhiteXFire · 12-09-2005, 08:46 AM

FYI, here's what that means:

Excessive Speeding
When a driver is convicted for speeding 31 miles per hour or more over the posted speed limit, the driver will have to attend
a Departmental Hearing. The driver will receive a written notice of the specific time and location of the required hearing. The
hearing examiner will review the driving record. Upon the Department's review of the hearing file, one or both of the following
will be initiated:
1. 15 Day License Suspension
2. Special On-Road Driver's Examination
If a 15 day suspension is initiated, the driving record will show 5 points upon restoration. No points are removed if a special
driver's examination is initiated and completed.
Failure to attend this Departmental Hearing will result in a 60 day license suspension.

Oh, and for anyone young out there:
Under the Age of 18
The driving privilege of a person under the age of 18 will be suspended if that person accumulates six (6) or more points or
is convicted of driving 26 miles per hour or more over the posted speed limit. The first suspension will be for a period of 90
days. Any additional occurrences will result in a suspension of 120 days. This suspension is in addition to the requirements
of the point system found below.

white2000neon · 12-09-2005, 08:48 AM

if i go to court to fight it will i have to also go to the departmental hearing or will it be the samething.

If you go to court and you are simply found guilty, and you don't appeal or appeal and are still found guilty, then yes. The effect of a ticket is only seen when you are convicted of the offense. If they reduce it or you plead to something with no points, then no.

white2000neon · 12-09-2005, 09:14 AM

ooo ok i get it now thanks

poolmike · 12-09-2005, 09:24 AM

all three of you should have gone to prison. 100+ keep it on the race track - that is what it the track is for. We are all guilty of speeding but that is insanity.

I agree that it is insane. Especially if it were in any kind of traffic. But it was late at night, the roads were clear and they just wanted to get home. Obviously, the people in power don't agree that it is worthy of prison time. And I agree with that as well.

Still, some cops are cool and some are not. Too bad you got the cop that sucks, LJ. Hopefully you go to court and you get a judge that is cool. Or find a lawyer that is awesome. Good luck with it!

07BlackSS · 12-09-2005, 09:57 AM

Yea I actually didn't even know we were going that fast. It was one of those things where I was behind and I was just crusin' to catch up with them. When I saw how fast I was going I did slow back down to 75.

2point4DSM · 12-09-2005, 10:16 AM

I'm guilty of going a bit too fast on public roads as well. Usually it is when it is real late at night.

Some might argue that it is probably better to drive a little faster and get home sooner than to fall asleep at the wheel. Driving a little faster also helps some people focus better on the road, late at night.

silver05bullet · 12-09-2005, 10:21 AM

Never happened to me just last week i got a ticket for 72 in a 50

MuddyREX · 12-09-2005, 10:44 AM

I didn't know a Civic and Lancer could go 100mph.

I joke, i joke.

Fight the ticket, even though you guys were guilty. Most of the time, you can get the charges lowered. Sometimes, the police don't even show and the case gets dropped altogether. Good luck.

dolphinS4 · 12-09-2005, 10:52 AM

Thats sucks guys. Been nailed at that trap before also, twice to be exact. Sounds like someone got the "good" cop and the others got the "bad".

Plead not guilty and try to make a deal. Or better yet, higher a lawyer experienced in Philly traffic court, don't just higher any lawyer out of the yellow pages. It's all who you know when dealing with the courts in Philly. Its gonna cost some money, but you'll be ahead if it works out for you. 5 points and a suspension is something you don't want on your record.

We've all done the same thing, so don't sweat it to much. Trick is not to complain all that much when you get caught. Sure it sucks big time, but its a chance we all take.

Good Luck!

BTW: in Philly, the cops don't have to show for traffic court. They might be there, but chances are they won't. It will not get dismissed if they are not there.

SilverTurboRidin · 12-09-2005, 10:52 AM

They can just takes a while to get there hahaha
