I got my first speeding ticket in Charlotte...

On the way to The Masters. They were camping out on 77 and I just got pinched. poo happens, I get that.

 

But what do I need to do next? My dad has said I should just go to the courthouse uptown, take a shot and ask if they'll tear it up because I have a perfect record – never gotten a ticket before and only been pulled over three times – despite having driven for almost 11 years now. 

 

What would you guys do? It's for 14 over, 69 in a 55. I don't think they'd tear one up for 14 over, but is it worth going over there to ask or should I just pay the fuger?

I can tell you what not to do. I've always paid a lawyer. Roughly 300 bucks and it's always been dropped. Well last ticket two years ago I went down town spoke with an ada. Waited in line for an hour. He reduced it from 81 in a 65 to 71 in a 65. I had always heard if it's under 9 it won't hurt your insurance. So I paid my 150 dollar fine and went on my way proud of myself for saving 150 bucks. "Screw a lawyer, that was easy". Fast forward a few months and time for insurance renewal and boom im hit with a three year rate increase because of it!!!!!

Tldr. Pay the money for a lawyer. It's worth it

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
