I don't think it was the two tickets in 8 years that did me in. I think it was the fact that my last ticket came only 2 months before this one. I assume the judge thought I was developing a lead foot and wanted to nip it in the bud.

The weird thing was the Trooper was adamant that his reading was correct with every case including mine but when push came to shove, he agreed to waive the fine and the points. It was the judge that decided to keep the fine and waive the points.

The whole scene was Doc Hollywood-ish. I thought they may put me to work to pay off my fine....

Probably all a con game if you ask me, playing good cop/bad cop.
