The Nevada Highway Patrol popped me near the 15/215 interchange for speeding. The cop was pretty cool and issued a ticket for just 10 miles over.
I'd like to fight the citation anyway and see if I can get it dismissed. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. In some cities the department REQUIRES their officers to attend traffic court hearings. What's it like here in NV? Will NHP show up in traffic court? ....or should I just hand the entire thing over to one of those sleezy traffic court attorneys I see the billboards for all over town? Any other tips for fighting traffic tickets here in NV are appreciated. |

I understand that Craig P. Kenny is still doing them for free. My Pre-Paid Legal program uses Dempsey, Roberts & Smith to handle the tickets. Usually dropped to a parking ticket with no points, no driving school and about 1/2 the fee of the original ticket. No, he charges $50 but it's well worth it. No points, no driving school. Craig P.

FYI, you can get a first speeding ticket (in a certain period of time) reduced to parking without the help of a lawyer in justice court now. And although I try not to take on too many, I'll gladly cover speeding tickets fro Arfcom people for $20 here in Vegas. I don't make a dime on that, but it at least covers my gas a a few minutes of my time.

Kenny's office. Maybe the good karma can pass on to the next ARFCOMM'er with a lead foot. |

you must have been flying to get pulled over on the 15 or the 215 Without admitting guilt - let's just say my car has a 6.3L V8 and generates close to 500hp. I may or may not have been aware of the speed I achieved while passing a slower moving vehicle. ....that is all. |

So wait, you get cut a break, yet you still want to fight the citation? I hope you get full-boated next time you get stopped for intentionally exceeding the speed limit. I have the same right to get legal representation and improve my situation that anyone else does no matter what your uninformed opinion is |

What a fantastic attitude. Whatever happened to owning up to something, taking your licks, and moving on. |
