Default speeding ticket help

Alright, so I got a speeding ticket the other night

20k/m over on a 50 zone in a community area

He was nice enough to reduce it to a 10 over.

Anyway, he told me.. if I took it to court, it would be convicted as the "20 over" instead and it would cost me more.. I don't know if he was lying..

He already wrote all the information about it being 10 over and what not? can he really say that it was 20 over instead in court?

Anyway, what should I do..? I'm cheap and have no money to spend.. I Don't wanna pay ...

toronto...

Wouldn't you still have to pay the 10 over ticket if you take it to court? Just pay the man. You're the one that was speeding in the first place.

Why were you speed anyways? Just asking because I am really scare to drive and speed tickets are one of the reasons.

I mean I will try not to speed but I heard you sometimes don't know if you are speed or not. Or in better words, you are not aware of how fast you are going.

There's this magical speed measuring device installed behind your steering wheel.

As Greed said, there's a device behind you're steering wheel.

As for why speeding... well... sometimes signs are set up pretty badly.

just pay it, it's only a 10 over.

He can't change it if you go to court after he's already reduced it (if he tries you can provide your copy of the ticket and he'll get into trouble) but face it you were speeding, he can prove you were. You'll be paying either way >.> or taking a remedial driving course if it's a first offense.

Thats gonna be mad points on your license.

You better just pay it. Or, I guess, go to traffic school if they make you.

I have a friend who didn't pay their speeding ticket, and when a cop came up to us for suspicious activity, he was arrested on spot for having a non-paid ticket warrant. 24 hours in jail isn't fun.
