PA speeding ticket

**irbaboon** · 03-04-2008, 03:24 PM

Got pulled over doing 79 in a 55 last night, driving home from my exes collegs last night. How many points, are they transferable, whats my best bet. I was just going to pay it but worried about the points. Ready, Go!!!

Oh yeah havent had a speeding ticket in like 5 years but I buy an R/T and get one in less that 2 weeks!

Take traffic school and reduce the points. Should only be about 3-if they transfer

that's what I hate about PA man...fucking 55 mph HIGHWAYS

From what I've experienced, the only 55 mph speed limits around here are in Atlanta within the perimeter and around a few of the larger cities. More than half of my commute to college (250 miles) is 70 mph speed limit highways

Wasnt even trying to speed, just coasting downhill and picked up some mph. I was however speeding b4 that, ill admit to that. That whole run from 380 to jersey sucks ass

i doubt they are transferable,i would call penndot and try to find out.

**Silver Streak** · 03-04-2008, 05:29 PM

They might not even talk to eachother... my sister got a ticket in FL a few years back when she still lived in WI.. and they still don't know about it...

**ls1blackbeauty98** · 03-05-2008, 07:57 AM

i honestly dont know if they transfer because i got a ticket in jersey honestly like 3 years ago, i called it BS and never paid the damn thing, i havent heard from anyone since?

that is a BAD idea... if you get pulled over here and they see you have'nt pai that ticket they will arrest you... then you go to court in NJ and get screwed over big time...

Of course you haven't heard from anybody about it. They don't have time to babysit everyone who gets a ticket. It's pretty simple, if you don't pay it or show up at court by the date issued, you get an arrest warrant issued.

Don't go back to Jersey.

even if she gets pulled over here she can get arrested...

I would just pay it and forget it. I got a ticket in NC a few years ago; I live in TX. Sent them their money and there were never any other consequences; insurance or anything. Like was said, i wouldn't ignore it though. Plead no contest and send money.
