so im hanging in this little town called sag harbor which is part of the town of southampton. im driving down mainstreet around 10:30 at night and its really busy, the whole place is a big party and theres lots of traffic. I'm lookin for a spot which are at this point scarce and i see one on the other side of the street. with no cars coming in the opposite direction i shoot across the street and grab the spot. all is supposedly well and i go and hang around town with my girlfriend for about two hours. i come back and there's a ticket on my windshield from the town of southampton for 50 bucks because i crossed the double yellow.

what is the deal with this? I know i broke the law and deserve the ticket of course, but the issuing official didnt pull me over for a moving violation so therefore doesn't have my license, doesnt know who i am, or anything like that. I can mail in the 50 bucks and be done with it but will this go on my record and heres the big question, will my insurance go up? i cant afford to have my insurance go up its really expensive where i live right now as it is. so am i fucked or what? All i care about is the insurance thing. thanks to anybody with advice.

There should be a thing that says when you can show up to court. Its optional of course, but go in, plead no contempt. Then if the judge is feeling nice, you get a deferal. Maybe traffic school. Keep record clean for however many months he says, and youre kosher.

you probably parked in the wrong direction on the wrong side of the street man. Of course they're gonna give you a ticket for that

I didn't read your post because I'm on a tight schedule but check out this site (it's for speeding tickets primarily). It's a pain in the ass to go through the whole process to get out of the ticket but it's worth while if it's a bad one.

Don't be a flamer man. And what he meant was that maybe the cop didn't see him park and came by after he'd left. And since the car was parked the wrong way, the cop knew that the car had crossed from the other side of the road.

na i was parked the right way because the sides of the streets are lined with like miniature parking lots. there's a row of spots perpendicular to the street so no parallel parking, the ticket is clearly for crossing the double yellow. also if anybody cares i called the town today and asked what the deal was. my insurance company will not be notified and no points on my license all i gotta do is mail in the 50 bucks and its over. mad legit.

^^^That website was fucking stupid. Plead not guilty to a speeding ticket? If they have a fucking radar, why would a judge deny the county of 50 more dollars in income? Also in there, it says something about "Throw something at the cop, and if he is off guessing its speed, then he is probably way off guesing your cars." Yes, wonderful idea, throw something at the cop in the middle of your court appearance, that will really impress the judge.

I hate it because it looks like it should be called the Prison Shower.

maybe atlantaski wants michael innocent cuz he was molested by him 4 years ago when his dad sent him to neverland ranch for a day and now he wants michael free so he can penetrate one more time-Lateralis

 
It's not that stupid after all, I didn't check that site.

But I do take all my tickets to court and I mean all of them. Let me explain, by pleading not guilty on the ticket all you wanna do is challenge the officers evidence or just plea in court. But if the cop don't show up youre off the hook. If he does show up

you can just plea guilty in front of the judge and pay the damn fine. You can also send your friend to court for you to transfer the date of the court

you can do that of up to 3 times here in canada,

chances are a cop won't show up for the next set date. But yeah people do everyone a favor take your tickets to court. That will keep some of the pigs away from the streets thus a smaller possibility for someone to get a ticket. If everyone were to go to court for anytraffic tickets there would be no pigs on the streets they would all be in court.

 
One more thing read your ticket with the outmost attention, cause if a cop forgot to put something on the ticket like his sig, date, badge number the ticket is not valid. Look for typos as well. Tickets that don't make sence like "commited an offence of speeding 60 km'h in a 70 km/h zone".

P.S. I don't know about states but here in Canada insurance companies rape your ass for absolutly any ticket you get weather its 10 over or a dirty license plate ticket.

 
it depends on what type of cop pulls you over. some get paid extra to go to court so they will always show up. some dont get paid, so they never show up.

 
ya, throwing shit across the court room is fucking stupid. but the rest is all good and what can the jusdge do to you if you plead not guilty and lose? and what's the point of showing up if you are just going to plead guilty? You may as well just pay it right away or go and hope the cop doesn't show maybe?

well i know up here in canada if you cross a double yellow line it isnt anything, the lines on the highways are just a suggestion while if you cross a solid white line then you can be charged. Also the cop would have had to seen you do the infraction there for they should have stopped you when you were getting out of your car.

i donno if i get this, but how elce would you park on that side of the road without crossing the double

^the fat ass meter maids probally wont show up for court

Sounds like they are hosing you out of fifty bucks, I don't see what's wrong with taking a left turn into a parking space. Where there any signs that state you are not aloud to take a left turn into a perfectly legal parking spot??

***Hire a teenager while they still know everything.***

 
Wait a minute, are you telling me that they gave you a ticket for making a left hand turn? and happened to be crossing a double yellow line? That doesn't even make sense. The lines are only so you don't pass someone, not so you can't make a left turn.

I've heard of people asking for the radar gun model, it's history, it's accuracy, then asking for the cops record and ask him to appear as well, and so forth. It can either be a waste of effort, you can scare them off of it, or you can get it reduced.

He use to tell me that when the automobile was first invented there was no clutch and that the clutch was made for the stupid woman that did not know how to shift. (His words not mine, so ladies no offense) Anyway, according to Old man Jim, you can shift without a clutch without ruining the gears, if you time it perfect.

i didnt bother to read anyone elses posts, and Im from canada, so it might be a bit different but...you are allowed to exit or enter a roadway across a double line. so if theparking spot isnt on the road, its legal. if the cop didnt issue the ticket to you personally when you did the infraction, there is no proof he saw it, and therefore no proof it happened. if you give in and pay the ticket it wont make yourinsurance go up
