We've all received
one: a traffic ticket that seems completely unfair, the result of
an officer's evening quota rather than a serious moving violation.
But do you have to pay the penalty and watch your driving record crash
and burn?
Not if you choose to fight back with Beat Your Ticket.
Written by bestselling author Attorney David Brown, Beat Your Ticket
simply and clearly lays out the best strategies for beating tickets
in court. The book explains in plain English how to:
use the law to fight an unwarranted ticket
find out what the police officer plans to say at your trial
attack radar and other detection methods
pick a jury
present your case
cross-examine the ticketing officer
The 3rd edition provides information on fighting red-light camera
tickets. It also includes a unique 50-state list of laws and court
procedures, and a discussion of "defense dos and don'ts."
Armed with this book, you have just what you need to steer clear
of pedestrian courtroom defenses and win your case.
