what trucking company's will hire a driver with 3 accidents in the past 3years?
Assuming it was radar that he used to determine your speed (he could simply have paced you), there are certain things (as you list) that may need to be demonstrated in court. However, don't count on the officer failing them. They tend to have a good idea what the law is and if your main hope is that the device was checked or the office wasn't correctly trained (etc), you're not going to have much luck.When you are driving a straight road how do you move the wheel? I never drove before.?
The officer does not have to prove anything, the only thing he has to do is make sure that his equipment is in functioning order. Like, using a tuning fork on the radar, speed calibration,and other calibration tests depending on RADAR units. Once he has the RADAR set up, it is what actually calculates the speed.I am learning to drive and was wanting to know what is the best way to improve my spacial awareness?
It doesn't matter if he has to show you the speed or not. If you try to be a smartass by asking for proof, you will just end up in even more trouble. The cop should be able to write you a ticket for wreckless driving, based on the fact that you were driving in great excess to other vehicles.Bamma a retired judge.

Most courts will allow you to admit guilt and be assessed a lesser fine by doing so before the scheduled court date, thus saving the time and money of the taxpayers. This is your best option, and it may be the only way in which you will be eligible for traffic school, whereby you can avoid it ending up on your Motor Vehicle Record, and in the hands of your Insurance Adjuster. Your other option is to show up at the court at the appointed date and hope that the Peace Officer is sick that day, because if he shows up, you will be found guilty.what would happen if you drive your car on somebodies lawn?

I can assure you that careless is not the term that will be used by the prosecuting attorney in a court of law . I'm leaning more towards reckless endangerment, and don't forget this word NEGLIGENCE . If you would have killed someone this is the term that would certainly have put you away for a very long time.
