I don't understand your question. What 'system' are you referring to? Can you elaborate for the others?

P.S. If there's anywhere worthy of speeding (which I have been unable to justify doing in my years driving)...it certainly isn't in a school zone. Not only are they watched very closely, but it's dangerous. There's kids around.

If nothing more, your friend will be more careful in school zones...

If you mean you looked the ticket up online then that makes sense. Read the ticket it usually says they won't show up in the system for about a week if not longer.

My best advice would be to tell your friend to drive like it was his/her kids crossing the street, to fight a speeding ticket in a school zone is ridiculous, and put the cell phone down .

Never use these loan "facilities". This is just about the most expensive credit you can access. In Canada at least the court will always give you time to pay a fine or work it off.

I don't think the original poster was interested in moralizing or financial advice. He wishes to know if there is some technical reason the ticket need not be paid.

What this has to do with driving a Jaguar XF remains a mystery.

If you are in a school zone and got caught speeding, means you were not paying attention in an area where you should be on your toes. Ten mile over a speed zone is not worth fighting, it's a lost cause.

Speeding elsewhere is fightable and if fast enough the ticket could be a trophy.

I was at a Jag Club function some years back and a little old lady was complaining because her husband sold her XJ12 sedan for speeding. She lived in Minnesota and got caught doing 100 in a 50mph zone. She carried the ticket till her departure.

My friend already paid the ticket, still it is a good listen for her.
Thx

Whether it's a bot or not, if ya can't do the time, don't do the crime. There is a place to enjoy the capabilities of your Jag, school zones are not it. I have zero tolerance for somebody too absorbed in their (important schedule because they got up too late and have to scramble, googling the nearest Starbux on iphone and texting while driving)

Posting a link to a payday loan service is cheesy at best. I reckon thats how the majority live nowadays.
