Legal Question in Traffic Law in New York

Speeding ticket with international driving license

Hi ,

I just received a speeding ticket 89 on 65 zone. (Windsor Town Court)And also 77 on 55 zone 1hour later on the same day.

I was totally frustrated. But I am a foreigner and have driving an international driving license (Korean). The police gave me 1more ticket for license vialation. I've just lived for 5months. This is my 1st driving offense. What about penalties on that for international license?

Is it cheaper going with a lawyer or Is it cheaper paying the fine?

Thanks

Re: Speeding ticket with international driving license

Hiring an experienced traffic attorney in the area that understands the use of radar, its accuracy, and the certifications required to use it properly is vital to not only trying to win, but to keep your insurance premiums lower for years to come. Pleading not guilty and requesting a hearing is always recommended. The driver can benefit by having a hearing. More often, however, the ticket can be resolved through the mail. Paying a little today may save you two or three times in the future.
