He won't show up. I even asked him if I could just pay the ticket and not go to court.

Pretty much every one has including me. When we get caught doing it we pay fines for it.

Hey I just got pulled over twice! By the same cop, in one day!!! I got pulled over the 1st time for window tint and got a $130 ticket for tint that I did not know the previous owner had on, then on the way back he thought I was another Camaro so he pulled me over for the same reason decided to not look dumb so he gave me a ticket for going 5 over. He even said "Oh I thought I was going to get another guy with tint"

Don't you have HUD? How do you get a ticket with HUD? If not, then my bad, lol.

Ahhhh! Man that sucks then. Hope it works out in your favor if your able to get it dropped.

Most cities have laws that specify speed limits for roads that do not have a sign - and ignorance of a law is not a defense. I would check to seek if where you got the ticket is covered under this type of statute. Good luck. May be easier to get a lawyer and plead down to a non-moving.

Hmm.. I'll look.

When I got a speeding ticket last year, I went to court for it. Either he showed up, or he didn't. Either way I'm paying court costs.

I was there an hour early, the first one in, and he was not there. They dismissed the charge.

On my way out, I took the elevator down, and as the door opened.. I came face to face with the officer, smiled, and went home with a clean record.

It's worth it to go to court and take your chances, unless you're tight on cash.

Found this:

http://codes.ohio.gov/orc/4511.21v2

In part:

(2) Twenty-five miles per hour in all other portions of a municipal corporation, except on state routes outside business districts, through highways outside business districts, and alleys;

Not a lawyer, I just know that the normally the lack of a sign doesn't mean you can get off. However I did hear of a case when a speed limit sign did not meet the state minimum size requirement.

Edit: I agree with above - worth it to fight it.
