write a letter. i got mines dropped via a letter a couple of years ago. we have very liberal judges here. but make sure it is well composed and detail the event and what "mitigating" circumstances are and why you think the charges should be dropped. be specific and to the point. take pictures via google or go to the site and snap some pics. a little research will go a long way and will save you the trouble of going to court and paying higher insurance premiums for years to come. good luck!

So half of you think I should write a letter.. The other half of you think I should go to court.. Lol. I'd be more comfortable writing the letter but what if it's not good enough and it would have been better for me to go to court?! So confused. Ugh.

How close were you to the van? if you were within 100 meters the radar may have been confused especially if you were coming around a corner. You can also say that the van was pulling away from you at the time you were in view of the officer proving that the officers radar was picking up the van. Hope that helps. On another note I wish we had highways in california called the liklike.

Uh well unless I missed something you were speeding.
A judge is not going to hear "But I was only doing 60 not 70". Like CMM said The lasers here are very accurate and hard to fight in speed trap areas.
If you do fight it at least go to court and hope the cop has a reputation or the judge is in a good mood and takes pity.
