traffic violation?

96GST16g · 03-19-2010

last night at 1 or so i get pulled over for a 36 in a 25. I think the cop gave me all the copys to the violation because i got two white copies a yellow and a pink. If he didnt keep a copy that means he cant file it right? How do i go about finding out if he kept a copy?

There should be a automated telephone line listed on the ticket you can call to see if your violation has gone into the system yet. It generally takes 1-2 weeks to get in there so don't get too excited until its been at least 3 weeks.

Police don't have computers in their cars anymore? Damn budget cuts!

they usually have computers but i was in jefferson SD, so its pretty ghetto. i have a court record, summons,officer record, and defendent record. I called the cop shop were i got the violation and they said they have a pink and white tickit but im pretty sure i have all the copies?

I call their bluff. They're just playing you.

That's a tough one. No need to get arrested over it, but on the other hand, if it was the troopers error..... haha

Thats why i did a post to see what I should do. Its a fricken 138.00 dollar fine. If i dont have to pay it i sure as hell not going to. I was speeding yes but if no proof of fine screw that

take it to court and have the officer prove he has a copy, No Copy, no fine. You just happened to show up at court at the exact time of your court appearance. LOL

well if he dont have a copy then there is no need to go to court?
