I dont want any bad mouthing of cops they were just doing there jobs. just real advice on the best way to go about fighting this ticket. the ticket says it was an estimate and they used Lider not rader i dont no the difference. Thats just wat the ticket says. ant real advice would b appreciated its a $300 ticket and i cant afford to pay it for something i dont think i did or was in the wrong for doing.

It depends on your driving record. If this is your first ticket, fight the ticket, say that you have never been ticketed and have a good driving record. The ticket will most likely be reduced.

If you have been stopped and ticket before, pay it and slow down, one more moving violation and your license could be suspended.
