[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 1105342, member: 12570"] Hiring an attorney for a 4 mph over the limit speeding ticket seems a bit much for me. Locally all we have to do is go down to the police station, request and fill out a reduction form. It is then up to the police officer who issued the citation whether he/she wishes to reduce it to a non-moving violation. If the officer decides to reduce it you pay the fine and the matter is resolved. If he/she doesn't you can then go to court and ask for it to be reduced and/or dismissed. 9 times out of 10 a speeding ticket issued for going 4 mph over the posted limit will be reduced and/or dismissed. One day I was delivering in a school zone where a police officer was running radar. I asked him at what point do they pull drivers over and he told me they started looking when they were going 15 mph or more over the limit. That's 35 mph or more in a 20 mph zone which to me is kind of scary. You don't need an attorney. [/QUOTE]
