Are there any actual lawyers on ChiefsPlanet?

[ChiefsFanatic]

I think I need to hire a lawyer for my 16 year old son who got a speeding ticket for going 34 in a 20 school zone.

It is a church school that he didn't realize was a school, and on the description on the ticket, the officer clocked him before he was even 10 feet into the school zone. And he was sitting there waiting for a high school kid, because high school had just let out. I have literally driven down this road over 50,000 times in my life, at all times of day and year, and have never seen cop checking speed in this school zone.

The cop could have seen how nervous my son was, and been understanding about his lack of knowledge of the school, but he wasn't.

So, I need to hire a lawyer, and thought I would ask here first.

If you are not a lawyer, maybe you could recommend someone.

Thanks,

I've been known to do a little lawyerin on the side when I got time. Right now I got time cause I had to put down three more boars yesterday. I'm gonna have to wash that Elway Jersey real goood.

Send me $400 and we'll get started on this Dick of a cop, First he called your son a queer , right, well thats slander for starters, unless he is a queer then we;ll have to drop that.

Next he took your kids weed and didn't turn it in right, well, that will get him fired and there won't be no ticket. If he says he didn't take your kids weed we,ll just get him a drug test a goin. Your kids gotta test positive for this to work or it'll all backfire on us.

Next we'll sue that prick of a cop for rape, he corn holed the kid right, sure he did , we'll have evidence of that too.

When we get done they'll take that god damn speed limit sign down and put in a race track.

Send me some money!

I don't know MO law, but I got a ticket in Klamath Falls, OR on my way back from Reno doing 79 in a 55 while making a double pass. 243 bucks. I called the court and they told me I could pay 180, take an online traffic course, not get any tickets for 6 months and they would keep it off my record. A simple phone call will probably net you acceptable results.

But I'd make your kid do it. I know a lot of people have drilled you on the right and wrong spiel, so I'm not going to pile on. So JMO, but these are critical moments for you teach the most valuable lesson a young man can learn. Personal accountability. And it's a difficult thing to do. I wish you all the luck.

Hey what happened to that drunk guy who was pissed his wife wouldn't drive his ass to taco bell at midnight. So he goes out himself and the next day posted a thread asking people basically if his wife was a bitch for not taking him and causing him to endanger the public. Don't know why I thought of that again.

No, he was a dick because he is a Blue Springs Police Officer. I have lived here almost my entire life, and I cannot even think of one cop in this city who isn't a dick, including the female officers, and who didn't become a cop to compensate for something else in their lives.

Last October someone broke into my house. Passed out on my couch. Scared the shit out of my family and my kids. I called the police. They came to my house, and proceeded to conduct their interview of this person on my couch. My kids needed to get ready for school, but were too shook up to go downstairs. And I just wanted the guy out of my house.

I asked the officers to please take the guy out of my house, and they ALL acted like I told them to GTFO and proceeded to treat me like I called them for no reason.

Blue Springs Police Officers are horrible.

And because you always act like your shit doesn't stink. Don't you ever get tired of telling people how they are wrong? Or how you are right?

I am sure there are plenty of other people on here who could fill in a whole list of reasons why.

I guess people who live on the corner of Soap Box and High Road, in Hollywood, CA. are just better than the rest of us.

you ARE making excuses.......rest assured if your son had HIT a child while he was in the school zone, his ass would be in prison for the rest of his life. I look at it as though the cop did you a favor. All of my family are police officers, two of which are with Blue Springs, and rest assured, this thread and your initial comments have been sent to them.

Tell your son to have some respect for the law, if I had a child, and your son hit him.......rest assured, you'd not want to deal with it. There is a reason laws like this exist. Be a ****ing man, grow up, make your son pay his own god damn ticket, and then go **** yourself.

Believe me, I read him the riot act. We discussed how a driver has to be aware of all things at all times, like a road sign with a posted speed limit. I am upset that he did not pay attention.

My point is that, although he did speed in a school zone, it is not a public school, it is a church that happens to have a "school" but only looks like a church, and my son didn't realize that he was speeding. He had his seatbelt on, had his insurance card with him, and was otherwise being a good driver.

In this situation, knowing that it was a young driver, a warning is something that could have been a decent thing to do.

These are all the same... someone does something that's clearly wrong and wants to get out of it. Several people say the same thing over and over, with varying degrees bluntness ranging from "there's a lesson to be learned" to "JFC you f*** g'damn c***monkey douche, WTF?".... then the thread creator comes back and wonders why no one understands his POV.

Things escalate, I grab dinner and watch the show, someone creates a parody thread, and we all die a little inside.

Wow. Please don't send them my posts. Please.

[kstater]

So were there signs that indicated it was a school zone?

[scorpio]

Also, the fact that you are taking your teenage son's word as truth makes me LOL.

If the school-zone signage is poor or non-obvious then go take pictures and argue your case in court. Otherwise and pay your fine, bitch.
