Q. I was driving home from work on the I90, 10/22/20 I was doing 80mph in a 65mph zone and issued a ticket.

23 October 2020

A: 1. You can ask the court for more time to respond to the ticket. 2. The governor's executive order requires masks while in public places, where it is impossible to socially distance.

Q. Can a cop search my vehicle over speeding ticket and suspended licence

23 October 2020

A: Yes and no. There are circumstances in which he would be able to search your car. Generally, if he is asking for permission, the officer believes that he cannot search your car. If he simply does the search, he believed that he has the legal authority to search your car. Driving with a suspended license in NY is a crime, can he can arrest you for that offense. Make sure you get your license cleared up.

Q. What should I do about trying to get a speeding ticket reduced and the points on my license reduced? In NY state.

6 October 2020

A: Being a broke college student is a financial question, not a legal one. If you argue that the police officer was wrong, you end up at a trial where you lose. Over $1,000 in fines. If you say I am sorry and I should not have been speeding even 1 MPH over 30 MPH, you end up with a plea deal for a much smaller ticket. Good luck.
