How much is my speeding ticket going to be?

If the zone was posted as 60 mph, and was a two-lane undivided highway, then the violation was of Veh C 22349(b). Veh C 22349(a) makes it unlawful to drive over 65 mph on any highway, so that is probably why the "description" says that. However, it appears that the reported speed limit was 60, and your speed was reported as 90. The fine for going more than 25 mph over the speed limit is about $480. You may not be automatically offered traffic school to get the citation dismissed, but you can still go to court and ask. Traffic school will add $50 to the fine, plus the cost of the school, but will keep it off your record.

Yes....you can also contest a radar or laser ticket. However, your chances of fighting it are slim. If it is you vs the cop, the judge will go on the assumption the cop has no reason to lie but you do. YOU want to get out of the ticket, not pay the fine and not get the points. If you base your defense on the cop telling a lie for some unknown reason, your chances of winning are about zero. You will have to fight it on the assumption the cop made an error in calculating the speed. Since you are asking about non-radar/laser methods, yes there are other methods that can be used. If the cop pulled up behind you in your blind spot and then matched your speed, reading his CERTIFIED speedometer, and sees that you were over the limit (usually it has to be a certain amount, such as 5 mph to allow for error in your uncertified speedometer) he can give you ticket based upon tracked and observed speed over the limit. You will have to provide reasonable doubt as to the accuracy of how he did it. IE: Springtime and they just switched to summer tires from their winter tires. Did they recertify his speedometer? They also can use a timer device in some areas. The cop can start one stop watch as you cross a particular mark, then when he crosses the same mark, he starts a second stop watch. Then when you cross another mark, he stops the first one, and when he crosses the same second mark, he stops the second. A computer then matches the two stop watches and the distance traveled and comes up with a speed for your car. They even allow in some areas the cop to mark out a quarter mile and he then sits with a stop watch and "clocks' you (that is where the term came from) as you travel the quarter mile. If the speed limit is 60 mph, he knows to go one mile should take you more than 1 minute, and to go a quarter mile, it should take you more than 15 seconds. If you do it in 10 seconds, he knows you were speeding and again can give you a ticket. Pay the ticket and watch your speed.

probably a lot, you were going 30mph above the speed limit thats 50 percent more.
