Legal Question in Traffic Law in New York

speeding ticket

i got a speeding ticket for doing 85 in a 65 on the nys thruway outside the town of amsterdamn. or actually at that point it is 90 west. the trooper told me radar said 89. ticket he gave me said 85. i have not had a speeding ticket for over 26 years. is there anything i can do to lessen the severity of this ticket? should i just plead quilty and pay fine or plead not guilty and go to trial. would it do any good to have a mechanic check the accuracy of my speedometer since i am told the faster you go the further off the speedometer is. I have to respond to this ticket by 01/26/09. i got it on 01/16/09

Re: speeding ticket

Plead not guilty ,do this ASAP to avoid being suspended. Keep the original summons, send in a copy, do not request a corroborating affadavit. Then contact my office @7188340087 for a free phone consultation. By pleading not guilty you are just analyzing your options.
