Thank you.

I don't know about the book, but I can tell you how different National
Motorists Association members did without it.

 i live in mass and my detector has gone off a bunch of times with cops
zapping me with laser (lidar)

which highway were you on?
91? 90?

i actually almost crapped my pants today as i was driving on the Garden
State Parkway in new jersey this morning and my detector went off full
steam at laser.. luckily i dont think i was going fast enough over the limit
for him to go after me cause from what i hear unless you have a laser
jammer.. once your radar detector has picked up that you've been hit with
laser its already too late.

goodluck on the case.. tell us how it turns out.

I'm being straight forward. One of the benefits of NMA membership is
personalized ticket fighting advice. Otherwise don't expect much for
free...

yea i'm sure all the courts are up to date specially since they have been
using lidar for quite a while now.

if i were you i'd try that strategy in your book.. it can't hurt.

The ebook in question and the Nat. Mot. Assoc. offer conflicting
advice on several issues.

For example, the ebook strongly advises against a jury trial while
NMA advises that you should request a jury trial.
I myself think that the ebook is right--you are asking for trouble
is you ask for a jury trial.

You're right, here lies the difference - but: NMA does NOT advise that
you should request a jury trial in Massachusetts, where this particular
violations occurred, because you can't get one.

And that is the rub: while NMA maintains a network of state chapter
coordinators, activists a volunteers, a book offers one generic advice
for all the states.

Well, no. I paid for 'instant access' to some of the info on NMA web site
and they specifically state that if you can get a jury trial you should
ask for one. IMO this is asking for trouble -- you're pissing off the
prosecutor, the judge, etc.

True, but I have the relevant case law for Indiana.
I'll try it in court tomorrow, and I'll let the group know how it worked.

I have a few lawyer friends.
They all say, on a minor thing like a traffic citation, there are
basically two appeals that can be used: law, and emotion.
If you're going to argue the law, ask for a jury.
If you're going to argue emotion, forget the jury.
For such minor things as traffic citations, most jurors will feel that
theu are being wasted on such things, and will have little pity on
what they will see as a whining loser. Their view is, if you did it
and are just trrying to cry your way out, convict.
However, if you can articulate your way through the actual law, and at
least show that you *thought* you were right, they will usually let
you off.
Interesting.
