Default Just got my First Speeding ticket ! In L.I.

So, i was cruising down the sunrise highway literally an hour ago. My top was down just listening to music (had to stop by a friends house) I make a right turn onto N Forest Ave right off the Sunrise Highway and get pulled over.

Long story short I get hit with a 62 in 40. I have never gotten a speeding ticket before, I have NO points on my license and am wondering what my options are at this point.

I'm also not from the area so I don't know any lawyers. I'm from Brooklyn, I got no pull in LI. lol.

Any help, suggestions, testimonials, etc.. would be helpful .

Eliot, "Defender" would be the guy to speak to.. He has helped a LOT of us here in the past. I would PM him first to see what to do and what your rights are. Good luck!

yeah, I just seen one of this posts. Read that he is leaving and might not be handling tickets anymore. I gave him a PM anyways. We will see what happens.

I'm pretty sure it was in RVC right? I used to live there. Easy to plead down. My mother had a ticket there and i went to court with her. Just pleaded it to broken headlight and paid the fine.

yep Rockville, but i think its going to be a little more serious and harder to plead down considering this is Speeding 22 over !
