[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Alright, I searched the other threads.  Does anyone have recommendations for lawyers in Rockbridge county, VA or the town of Lexington?  Thanks![/quote]

If you were around Lexington there is ZERO chance you were in a flat, wide stretch of highway, probably 81.  That wasn't some bumblefuck dessert, you were in a two lane mountain road where fatalities are very very common (I almost was one a few months ago there - some one in a large vehicle driving reckless). Glad they caught you. Slow down. You sped, you got caught. You thought the risk was worth it, this time it wasn't. [/quote]

Yes to this.  OP, I'm familiar with the area in which I'm assuming you were ticketed, as I am frequently on I-81 for travel down to SWVa, and I lived near that region for years.  There is a huge difference between wide open, flat, straight highways out west and I-81.  For that matter, there's a huge difference between the layouts of I-95 and I-81.  The fact of the matter is, multiple sections of I-81 are hilly and somewhat curvy for an interstate, and through the past few decades there has been a high fatality rate in that region.  Frankly, I was shocked that the speed limit on stretches of 81 was bumped up to 70 a few years back.  There's just been too many accidents out there, high traffic or not.  That part of 81 is heavily patrolled for a reason, particularly from Rockbridge county down through Roanoke and Christiansburg.  PP's are right...you need to get a lawyer.  I'm something of a lead-foot driver myself.  BTDT.[/quote]
