[QUOTE="bramfrank, post: 226800, member: 2163"] I'm a big proponent of fighting tickets, but you haven't got much of a case for the defense. The ticket was issued based on going faster than conditions allowed for safe driving - strangely, the same ticket could have been issued no matter what the situation - unless you get hit by another car, you get swept away in a flash flood or a meteor crashes down upon you. It is a sort-of catch-all charge The underlying logic is that the driver is responsible for maintaning control of his/her vehicle no matter what. The crash proves that she was not in control. So the ticket gets issued as a natural consequence. Had she not been going as fast as she was, then she wouldn't have lost control and crashed, hence she was driving too fast for the conditions. You might be able to plead it down to a non-moving violaion, which will reduce the future sting on insurance premiums. Ends up probably being cheaper than hiring a lawyer and has the same result.
