Circumstances: passing a car that was erratic and veering into us. The speed limit changed quickly... officer was right on it hiding in the bushes... his favorite spot.</P> <P>In one month at <STRONG>7 pm</STRONG> we can go to the hearing. They want money.... $175 dollars. It is a known speed trap. We live over the border, it will not cost POINTS but it will be recorded and not purged for three years. I called insurance agent and said no problem with increased insurance.</P> <P>Should we ask for certificate for speed gun... the last time it was checked?</P> <P>Should we just pay. Should we appear and explain? Should I write the state of West Virginia and tell someone in charge about TRAP (AS IF THEY DID NOT KNOW) I think the officer has nothing else to do. I think they have 2. I so would like to have better warning signs about immediate speed change. I also would like to campaign for a better way to treat people passing through. I truly love the state, we go there often, very very often and now I have such negatives feelings.</P> Sat, 11 Jun 2011 20:49:52 GMT bonnielu 2011-06-11T20:49:52Z https://community.qvc.com/t5/Community-Chat/Advice-Speed-Trap/m-p/86744#M45289 <P>Long story short... hubby who takes family chiding because HE ALWAY DRIVES 5 MILES BELOW THE SPEED LIMIT was cited for speeding.
