Anthony D 10-04-2005, 04:10 PM ok, so i got 2 tickets tonight. one for 117 in a 55, and one for driving betwen cars. on the ticket for speeding, the officer wrote my v.i.n. wrong. i have heard rumors about this being grounds for dismissal, but i am unsure how true it is. i will be contacting a lawyer tomorrow, but i wanted to see if anyone on the board had any experience with this sort of thing. thanks!

Amy269 10-04-2005, 07:51 PM Its always funny when people get ticketed (and rightfully so) but they expect to get off on a technicality. Of course anyone would but you know the saying goes, "You play, you pay." JohnyCakes 10-04-2005, 08:53 PM fight that shit!! ...and if the cop is so stupid that he cant copy the VIN from one piece of paper to another, then his ability to use a radar/laser, or his ability to pace a bike should be in question, and the ticket should be dismissed...case closed. dont give me this you play you pay bullshit...we have all been in a similar situation where you reach those speeds...oh shit, I gorgot...here on GDC we all obey the speed limit except for BigJohny and his goon friends http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif The cop fucked up, plain and simple...get a lawyer and keep your fingers crossed, or else you and I may be riding mountain bikes next season...

You better hope so, otherwise you're gonna be screwed. I'd seriously just hope that they let you keep your license much less getting the case thrown out, considering you broke 2 laws, speeding and lane splitting. Doing more than 2x the speed limit you're also lucky he didn't give you reckless driving. I don't know if an incorrect VIN is grounds for that. Does it matter what vehicle you were doing 117 on? Point is you were doing it. Just curious, how off on the VIN was he, a number or 2 or was it way off like not even close? spongebob 10-05-2005, 01:28 AM BJB>>i like your enthusiasm, but...cops arnt held accountable..the guy is fucked,, judge aint gona let this cops fuck up get anthony off the hook..can u imagine the fuckup the cops in NY make every day writting tickets....? shit, they can steal bikes and get away with it.. MrWicked1k 10-05-2005, 01:32 AM If you are going to fight it get a LAWYER ! GSXtasy 10-05-2005, 01:56 AM You CAN get off on technicalities SOMETIMES. Most of the time the judge will dismiss if the screwup is bad enough, i.e. writing down the wrong statute. I'm not sure if the VIN will be enough though. What you need to do is file a demand for discovery and get the records for the particular radar or lidar gun he used and make sure it was calibrated recently, check if they still have the license from the FCC to use it (they have to renew it preiodically), and make sure that he's been trained properly on how to use it (they also have to "freshen" up periodically). Guaranteed something is out of order and you can use that to get it dismissed. http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif Starsky 10-05-2005, 03:42 AM ur fucked...what did you expect, a kiss? pay up doOd..

He could have kept his lic. but unless he was running or being a dick wad they won't do the throw down and haul you away.

Fiddy_Ryder 10-05-2005, 05:47 AM you aint gettin that tossed.. vin big deal.. he got you dl and plate's correct. anything triple digit justifies arrest on the spot. you got lucky.

I def. never said that I always obeyed the speed limit but when I get caught for something that I did wrong I dont try to fight it. I just figure I got off cheap for all the times I DIDNT get caught. As I said of course everyone wants to find away to get out of a ticket if they think they can but I cant remember the last time someone said, "Hey, got a ticket, that sucks so I guess I'm out a few hundred bucks." Instead every post about tickets ask for ways to get out of em. Truth is whether you get a lawyer or not a simple thing like a number or two off of a VIN isnt gonna buy you a ticket to Get Off Freeville. I'm sure it'll only be a matter of time before someone else posts about getting busted for doin a wheelie when they SWEAR it came up on its own and it was an accident...http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif TelfonoMvistr750t 10-05-2005, 12:47 PM 117 and you didnt go to jail?.....dunno if i beleive that w/o seeing the ticket believe me, I've been pulled over for MUCH faster than 117 and didnt go to jail...its a common myth that you get automatic lock-up for excessive speeds...its possible, but uncommon http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/nono.gif well i assure you virginia is anal and my husbands friend got my husbands bike impounded before w/o running and at much lesser speeds so i dunno... Anthony D 10-05-2005, 01:02 PM no, i didn't go to jail, and i didn't get the bike impounded. the only reason i even mentioned the incorrect v.i.n. thing was to see if anyone had concrete evidence of this working. juniorace 10-05-2005, 01:12 PM Depending on how much the tickets will end up costing and lingering effects (insurance, etc.), it may be better off to just pay up and be done with it. The attorney is gonna cost you some serious money...and then it may not make a difference. Really sounded like you got off pretty good. Devilman 10-05-2005, 07:17 PM Blah, blah, blah...

If you're going to be found guilty, so be it. But at the very least make the Cop show up in court and give em hell. I would even talk to my attorney about bringing up personal defects with the Cop. Such as... "Officer Dipshit, isn't it true that in 1998 you sucked a dick? ADMIT IT!!! You sucked one and you know it!" and "Officer Dipshit, have you ever had sex with a mule? No? Well have you ever thought about it? No? Well would you like to?" and "Officer Dipshit.
