    Ticket for doing 100Mph+ in California

    Getting a ticket for doing over 100Mph+ in Riverside/Indio in california is a mandatory court appearance.

    If the cop doesn't show for this type of court appearance, is the case still thrown out, or does that apply only to normal contested tickets?


    (p.s. i do plan on asking my lawyer in the morning, but would like to see opinions from GFY)

      the only time you are cool for doing over 100+mph is if you take pics of your speedometer and post them here

                      MANDATORY APPEARANCE

                      If your case requires a mandatory appearance, you cannot pay your fine without first appearing in court for arraignment. You can appear on or before your appearance date at any of the listed court locations. (Click here for court locations) Your courtesy notice will indicate MANDATORY court appearance.

                      The following infraction charges require a mandatory appearance.

                      22348(b) VC - Speed greater than 100 mph
                      23140(a) VC - Person under 21 years old driving with Blood Alcohol Content of .05 or more
                      12280(b) VC - Possession of assault weapon (as infraction)
                      If your case requires a mandatory appearance, you cannot pay your fine without first appearing in court for arraignment.

                          So question still stands, anyone knows if the police officer not appearing still applies to this type of ticket as it typically does when you contest a lesser speed infraction ticket?

                          Anyone?

                              1. Arraignment - cop does not need to be there

                              2. Trial - cop does have to be there, if he doesn't show, case is dropped

                                          I dont think there will be any jail time for this type of infraction, am I wrong in thinking that?

                                              A speeding ticket? I don't think you'll be incarcerated.

                                                      My ticket resulted in a fine of about $600 and a suspension of my license. That was about 5 years ago so the details on the amount are hazy, and I was able to get out of the suspension due to some fancy footwork on my part.

You should not only gotten a ticket for the speeding but you should have also gotten a ticket for reckless endangerment. Some people's children just don't have any fucking brains.

                                                                              BTW, anything over 20 MPH can get you arrested and taken to jail, so if the cop just gave you a ticket, consider yourself damn lucky.

(a) Notwithstanding subdivision (b) of Section 22351, a person shall not drive a vehicle upon a highway with a speed limit established pursuant to Section 22349 or 22356 at a speed greater than that speed limit.
                                                                                  (b) A person who drives a vehicle upon a highway at a speed greater than 100 miles per hour is guilty of an infraction punishable, as follows:
                                                                                  (1) Upon a first conviction of a violation of this subdivision, by a fine of not to exceed five hundred dollars ($500). The court may also suspend the privilege of the person to operate a motor vehicle for a period not to exceed 30 days pursuant to Section 13200.5.

                                                                                  Just remember, $500 is the base fine, CA adds a 150% penalty assessment (or something like that). It will more than double the fine.
