Yeah I hear ya haha, i haven't got a speeding ticket thats held up yet.
I have one i'm fighting right now for "Driving to fast for the road conditions" that I got when I wrecked my last car.
The thing is they are gonna be like "well you even told the officer you were going 40 on a curve marked 35, and i'm gonna say "Well thats a recommended speed, the speed limit is 45, so that means there is no way he can give me a ticket on that statement, plus he wasn't there and he didn't see me wreck so he has no idea what I was doing"
haha

A few things:
1) Invest in a top line detector. If you're not running around with a Valentine1 or other top tier (Ie: No Cobra units...) radar detectors, you're gonna get fucked. Before I learned not to use a walmart special, I got fucked twice. If you cannot afford a good radar detector, you cannot afford to speed. In many states, a fine+ insurance increase for a single ticket could've paid for a Valentine 1.
2) If you live in a state that uses LIDAR: Laser jammer.
3) Learn when to speed, how to speed, and what you shouldn't do. Blatently going 90 in the fast lane by yourself is asking for it. Use a scape goat (Aka: rabbit). In essence, you hang behind the fastest car in traffic. That way he gets lit up by the cop, and you get the advanced warning from your detector. Stay in the right lane as much as possible.
4) Know the cops methods and ways. Many sit in medians, but also love bridges (Both behind and even on top shooting down), entrance ramps, behind buildings...etc. Know their normal spots.
5) Use your instincts. If you feal uneasy at all... slow the **** down. There have been numerous times I've had a bad feeling, and slowed down. Saved my ass every time.
6) Interstates and highways are copfests. Drive accordingly.
7) When you get a ticket, contest them. You lose 100% of the citations you don't fight. If you do fight though, make sure to do your research. Even if you lose, you help jam up the court system and severely decrease (if not eliminate) whatever profit the state would've made. If everyone fought their ticket instead of bending over and taking it, the revenue generator would seize up.
8) In court, don't testify. As soon as you testify, the officer/prosecutor can easily back you into a corner on cross exam. All they have to do is ask you your speed. If you were actually speeding, you'll have to either admit to it (Will condemn you) or commit perjury (You don't want to do this...).
9) Radardetector.net. Use that for further research. Knowledge is power.
