Got a speeding ticket in NC have questions.
OK, i got a speeding ticket in NC today. I was on my way to the courthouse in Moyock to work on the fire sprinkler system there. I was in my car, meeting my boss down there. It was 82 in a 55. he said its just a speeding ticket not reckless... i thought 27 over was reckless no mater what.(Am i wrong) he said he could have arrested me but isn't going to because "i cooperated with him".
But on to the main question---
My ticket for the violation say's, "........you did unlawfully and willfully OPERATE A MOTOR VEHICLE ON A STREET OR HIGHWAY AT SPEED OF 82 MPH IN A 5 MPH ZONE." that is quoted off of the ticket the state trooper typed up in his car.
Being that he wrote the wrong Speed zone down, would the ticket be dismissed? And has any one else had this kind of problem in NC?
Does anyone know where to find out how much the ticket would be i cant find anything online.
and no I"m not bitching about getting the ticket, i deserved it, i was speeding but the car in front of me was too. I'm just trying to see if there is a way i can get it reduced/dismissed without paying a lawyer. Any help would be appreciated.
(if this is in the wrong section mod please move it.)

no it will not be dismissed for that. what agency wrote you the ticket? if its currituck, you can show up to court the day of your ticket and speak with the da. get there 30-45 min early to do this. it will depend on your record also. if you have a clean record, they will work with you some. you could get a lawyer. if you need one, pm me and i will reccomend you to a good one. nc is suppose to be a reporting state, meaning that if they decide to report it back to va, if the speed is great enough they can revoke your license in va for it. DO NOT just pay it.
