Beat that Ticket

Introduction:

There are many resources available for hints and tips at successfully contesting moving violation citations(i.e., "tickets") in the state of California, especially online. But not one of them gives you detailed, personallysuccessful tips on how to go about doing so. Personally, I have successfully fought and won five moving violations in the state of California in less than two years. Granted, that may not make me an expert, but I believe I'm pretty damn close.

Beating five tickets in the past two years has not only saved me thousands of dollars, but also the grief and headaches from insurance hikes, the pain and monotony of attending traffic school(which I'm also close to an expert at), and the high cost of the citations themselves. If you want a one-hundred percent guarantee of getting that violation wiped from your record(and you are eligible), go to traffic school. If you're feeling risky and have attended the mind-lobotomizing drain of traffic school before, and know that you can't take another eight hours of the most monotonous "schooling" you've ever experienced- that's where this guide comes in. I can't guarantee that this guide will assure you of victory, but I can assure you that this resource will maximize your potential for beating that ticket to the fullest, as well as put your mind at ease about some of the things you are about to face in doing so.

Step 1: Getting Your Ticket.

Okay, so you've gotten a ticket. Aside from the anger, helplessness, and frustration you must be feeling, you're also probably wondering how you can go about beating this thing. Whether you ran a stop, drove above the speed limit, made an illegal turn, or a combination of any of these, there is one, single most-important rule to beginning your battle against your citation.
