   The 55 or 65 max speeds do not matter since he was not charge with exceeding the max, he was charged with exceeding 100 mph per CVC 22348(b). A lot of commercial trucks drive the 99 through Kings, and I have seen a billboard posted along 99 in either Tulare or Kern since commercial driver’s can potentially lose their employment if they exceed 55 it is good business. A lawyer that specializes in traffic might even be cheaper than an over 100 mph ticket. If the pace was wrong by 4% then you should have been ticketed for the cheaper exceeding the max offense instead, you know.
   Some things to consider would be that the speedometer on the patrol car should be recalibrate during tire wear. But losing a half inch of tread would only cause changes of 1 or 2 mph when traveling 40~60 mph, so why not just wait until the next tire change instead of recalibrating right? Well over 100 mph that same speedometer can be off by more than 4 mph, and that is assuming that the officer did not drive 10 mph faster than you just to catch up. Without LIDAR or some more convincing evidence I tend to think you can get this reduced by half.
   You might have to find a traffic lawyer that would do a trial by mail.

   How fast were you going?
   It is ridiculous if you went 104 in a 55, or 104 in a 65!!!!
