Thanks for any advice, There's an urban rumor of someone who claimed their car was in bad shape and simply couldn't go fast enough speed to get the ticket received. The judge called the bluff, went out to the car and tried it. The car truly couldn't speed, and the ticket was dropped. Even if the judge buys the Antenna Argument, though, wherein the officer agrees the antenna didn't fall off, that would mean you were still doing 65 in a 45. They might be nice and call it "10 to 19 over".
