I doubt that you'll "beat it", but if you display a properly remorseful attitude and demeanor before the prosecutor before trial, explaining any mitigating circumstances which might apply, you might succeed in getting the speed reduced 10 or so miles in return for your plea of guilty to the infraction.

There will be significant opportunity to defend the claim if you seek information about the speed assessment device. Review 46.2-882 of the Code of Virginia with regards to the government's burdens in establishing speed of a vehicle during trial with radar/lidar devices.

Please review the articles and tips written on http://www.vatrafficlaw.com. Such is not a shameless plug, but a very content oriented site for persons contemplating a defense.

I shun the attitude of most attorneys in taking a contrite demeanor prior to analying the proof of the government.
