Just send it in. You can’t plea bargain a cell phone ticket. You don’t get any points on your license. It’d be like trying to plea bargain a parking ticket. ---

Unless you’re in danger of losing your license you’re foolish to go to trial. If you get to that point you should be consulting a lawyer, not a random website. The cop will just show up and own you. What you’re doing when you get a speeding ticket reduced is plea bargaining, not fighting it at trial to try and be found not guilty. In Pauly’s case he’d sure as fuck be wasting money if he went to trial over a measly little cell phone infraction. Pauly, despite not being points it still hurts insurance scores. FYI. ---

You have to love good old New York State. You can get uber tickets for tints and exhaust, but if you run a few people over they will just look the other way. :picard: [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/so-you-get-ticketed-for-talking-on-your-cell-phone-in-tonawanda/33390.md?page=2)
