I was the fourth woman traveling alone in a car in my group of friends to be ticketed for 53 in a 35. Ironically, I was stopped beside the 45 MPH sign. Not only a speed trap but a real racket. I wrote the local restaurant and peanut sales place to let them know I will not be bringing any more business to their town. This is predatory practice at its finest. I’ll vote with my wallet. BTW – they issue so many tickets here that they can quote the fine immediately. Makes you feel proud to be a Virginian.

The town is a definite speed trap. However, you were going 18 over the speed limit, in a 35mph zone. If you were ticketed for 5-10 over, then you would have a legitimate gripe, but you were traveling 53 in a 35 and you deserve the ticket you received

also the officer knows the fines because he knows his job and speeding motorists like you ask for the fines all the time. if he didnt know it u would prob complain about that too.

Officers know the fines because they trap people all day. They don't have feeling they are robots. Most cops are jerks and don't know how to deal with regular people. Unless you are a fellow cop you are screwed.
