Speeding ticket (82 in a 65 mph zone).I got a ticket in the Town of Nichols, NY doing 82 in a 65 mph zone. This was clocked by radar but the ticket does not have the radar officer's signature. Is this enough to invalidate the ticket? Also, how many points/potential fine is this? Is there a way to get this reduced as this is a first time offense? Attorney answers (3)

The lack of signature alone will not invalidate the citation.

The lack of a signature can help in terms of beating the ticket. Ultimately it is up to the clerk or judge, but the lack of a signature can be helpful.

This is a 4 point ticket and can result in your insurance increasing (even with an otherwise clean record). We therefore recommend that you fight. The omitted signature isn't enough to win the case but there are many ways to obtain a favorable result.
We can get this case reduced for you and save you points and a possible insurance hike. You do not have to attend court. Feel free to call me us at 212-683-7373.
