Urgent -- speeding ticket NY Interstate 81 (non US citizen)

:confused: NY State
I am a Canadian citizen. By the Canada long weekend, me drove a rental car all the way from NYC to Canada bother. On Interstate 81, there was a rude policewoman pull me over said I was speeding by 87 MPH in a 65 MPH zone. Me just the last hour head to Canada boarder, on the past 7 hours driving from NYC to the place I caught, never get speeding. At the same time, there were many cars passed by me and faster then me but me just the stupid one to stop the car and see what's up. The police never show me the rader (as I heard that the rader can be modified the speed), also she doubted I never get pull over at NY State, so rude. I request for the deposition and just the regular letter indicated the speed measured is visual estimate 85 MPH, Pace (Calibrated Speedometer) Radar/Moving, direct observation by Complainant.

My question which is I'm not the US citizen, will that be any affect or am I breach the law if I don't attend the pre-trail coz this is non-sense to ask the vistors to travel to US to hear the trail unless US paid for my transportation. Also at the same time so many cars around me, there are no poof this is my car but depends on who stop the car. I am using the cruise control when driving that long, so there is no way to get speeding. If I am speeding I get caught since the past 7-8 hours drive already. Also the police write my first name incorrect, my pre-trail date as on the letter is May 17 and for sure I won't attend. What am I suppose to do now and the results.

Apparently harried Canadian citizens cannot read the forum titles before posting. This forum is entitled "parking tickets and non-moving violations". So unless you were parked when your speed was clocked, you are on the wrong forum. Try posting on the board entitled "speeding and other moving violations".

Wirry. we don't want the poor soul to have to post ANOTHER thread... now do we... at least they didn't get lost and post on Real Estate or something.

Read the back of the ticket for information on who to call, make sure you have someone who understands and speaks English a bit better than you so you can get all the information clearly.
You may have to call the courts or the assistant district attorneys office (ADA) to find out your answers too. Use a search Engine like Google to find those numbers...
Good luck and slow down!
