Brown has told Mrs Brown to not lend out her DVDs :D ....

Yes, I have been told I'm a pretty good actress. I convinced you to marry me, didn't I?;)

The officer only put it as a traffic infraction. So I just have to pay the fine (don't know the amount but probably pretty high) and then online traffic school so I don't get any points on my record.


Negative. You submit an informal motion of discovery to the county DA (assuming it was CHP, the county DA is the prosecutor of record). County DA ignores it, so you submit a motion to compel discovery through the court, which if you're lucky the county DA also ignores. You then submit a motion to suppress everything not provided in discovery. Then submit a motion to dismiss due to insufficient evidence.

Also, if you do an initial trial by declaration (mail), still show up for your arraignment (initial date to appear) in person because if your court date is 45 days after your arraignment then you have grounds for dismissal under California's speedy trial law (since a speeding ticket is an infraction, not a civil offense).

Or he does what he should do and take responsibility for his actions. He shouldn't be a :censored::censored::censored::censored::censored::censored::censored::censored::censored: and try to get out of something that he did by breaking the law. He chose to break the law, he did break the law, and he got caught. He is being mature and owning up to it and suffering the consequences.

I didn't choose to break the law. I was going down a steep hill, at the top of it I was going 70mph which was the speed limit. I looked at my phone to figure out where I was going and next thing I know I look up and I'm going 95. I start to slow down and by the time he turned his lights on I was back down to 70mph. But yeah I was speeding so I am going to pay the probably $600-$800 fine and get the points off my record.

By choosing to break your concentration of driving, and becoming distracted, does that not in turn make it your choice that you broke the law? Not saying I haven't done it before, but the decisions you made leading up to the incident caused you to break the law.

And honestly, how long were you looking down to have a 33mph increase without noticing?

In my view it's different if you accidentally did it over knowingly did it. Either way it's still breaking the law.

And it didn't take much time actually. I glance at the navigation then I glance over the road to make sure I'm still in my lane and there are no hazards around me then I will glance at the navigation again. But I normally don't look at any of the gauges on my truck when doing that. It was a 29mph increase that took maybe 1 min 30sec max.

Honestly, I'm all for living up to your mistakes, but the state still has a responsibility to prove its case.

Usually I'm a guy with a 100% military crewcut. Yesterday, we'll say in a moment of wisdom, I shaved it all off. Definitely different being bald..

I forgot that the muffler on the lawnmower is hot. Now I have a lovely partial thickness burn across my entire palm.
