I said decent wage. I never said I was loaded. I just wanted to explain to people to man up and pay the ticket. One hour after sunset is one hour after sunset.

quick question. Without looking it up when is sunset today?

I know where i live the the sun goes over the horizon a hell of alot earlier then what the weather networks tell me sunset is at.

Further more why is it more dangerous to be going 50 in a playground zone at 10:00 in June when it's light and most kids are/should be in bed then at 5:00 in December when kids are still up and active but it's dark out?

This time of year...around 9:00 or so. Therefore don't speed until 10:00 ish.
I really don't care. If you speed pay the ticket. If sunset is 8:51 and the ticket is 9:45 is that one hour after sunset? Yes i think so.

Actually you said "I make more a decent wage" which would force someone to translate your broken english in their head to "I make more than a decent wage". You actually just went back and edited it before making this post.

ACtually i had a typo because i misread the OP's post and i thought he listed the price of the ticket. I went back and erased what I had originally wrote and forgot to take the "more"out of it. So my bad for a grammatical error. That's why I went back a second time and removed the more because I was not bragging. Right now I am just happy I have a job

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Tough guy? You respond to a post asking about getting a fine reduced with saying I make decent money and I think you should pay your tickets? I call it like I see it chief. You are irrelevant.

I wouldn't have even responded to him in this thread if I hadn't received a PM calling me a child and a toughguy.

Um, I can't help but think you're kind of being a "tough guy" yourself by calling out other "tough guys" in this fashion.

I'll keep you and your decent wage in mind next time I get a speeding ticket!!

I never called him (her/it/whatever) in a public forum. He called me a d-bag and a glut of other names in the forum. I sent him a PM calling him a child and an internet tough guy because i didn't want to start hurling insults back and forth in the forums. Just wanted to clear the air to show both sides of the story

Is there any merit in what they are saying, or should I just go and pay the ticket as I originally planned?
School or playground zone tickets are very hard to beat, i suggest you pay and fight the next battle. The only time i have had success on those is if there are mitigating circumstances and I plea with the cop on the scene.

In any case, you need to have some sort of mitigating circumstance to plea a case. You cannot just ask for a discount!
