My Speeding Ticket Trial

[blu2blu]

I have a lot of respect for you, barcotta, but this one makes me grin. It takes hardly any time to check the speedometer. The tiny fractions of time used to keep yourself under the speed limit endanger you far less than going 10-15 mph over the speed limit. (Also, it's not just danger to you, but danger to others.)

This whole discussion boils down to whether we should obey the letter of the law or the spirit of the law.

This is a fascinating thread. Make sure we all stay civil so that it doesn't get locked. :patriot:

I like your thinking. I believe this is a situation where following the spirit of the law is best, the spirit and intention being public safety. It's the letter of the law that got him off.
