I went to my local lawyer (i have had NO tickets in over 5 years), and now thanks to a KC Star article on the front page in Jan 29th, tickets cannot be amended after FEB 17th..

Is this fair??.. I can understand the person who has had 5 speeding tickets in one year, make it 1-2 tickets can be amended in a year, etc..

Its all about money isnt it?.. To pay the court costs etc... Yes, i did the illegal turn (a turn that was legal until a shopping complex was built, it has 2 lanes to turn left, but they made the right lane straight or right only, you can turn left, but there is a sign now)...

If anything, i will either fight the rotation of tires with pics of the side of the road i was pulled over and the gravel that is on the road.. When the officer pulled me over, we were blocking one lane of traffic ...

Whats amazing is everything i go home, people still use the right lane to turn left, school buses (even other cops), i need to bring my digital camera and take pictures daily of people uses that lane.. I dont think it that clear..

Thoughts/comments??

Plead not guilty and ask for a trial. Then video tape the place where these left turns take place. Also, get a local race driver to drive your car, try to get him to spin the wheels, and then call him as an expert witness so he can testify that your Kia sucks.
