I just got a ticket today on my way home for going 60MPH on a 40MPH zone. It's the first time I get a ticket, though.
The road I was at didn't have much lightning so it would've been pretty much impossible to see the posted speed limit, which I'll have to check if there was one even posted. Some other things are that the cop didn't have any lights on at all, so obviously I did not see him. He only turned his lights on when he was behind me, and afterwards he also turned on those blinking lights they have on top of the cruiser. And, obviously, it's fucking 12:30AM and there's no traffic at all so it's not like what I was doing was unsafe. The ticket was for $150, and obviously I don't want to pay that. What should I do?
