I honestly don’t care who evades tolls or speeding/red light tickets but it would be divine to able identify the degenerate that hits my car or relative, then potentially flees the scene.

Cops or city workers are not angels ordained by God, they are regular people working for a paycheck, same as the next guy. As such, they are not above breaking the law, such hitting someone and running from responsibility, especially if they think they can get away with it due to their incognito license plate info. Their lack of good character evident by their attempt at avoiding tolls/tickets sort of supports this assumption.

Are you naturally that dense or willfully ignorant?

Let me break it down for you slowman. The point of a vehicle license plate is to identify the vehicle. When a lowlife probably like yourself conceals the plate from identification, if by definition becomes a “Ghost Car.” Obscured plate or fake, it’s all the same.

LMAO 🤣 🙄

Good for you!

You got extremely lucky, maybe the cop got shot or fired for violating someone’s civil rights or something because they have two chances to NOT show up in court before the judge officially dismisses any summons and even that’s still at their discretion.

You might stand a better chance if it was a typical NYPD patrol officer, as they are probably less experienced with such specialized violations and in testifying on said violation at court, as a dedicated highway patrol cop.

I never really rolled the dice a patrol cop issued speeding ticket before, however, from what I understand, to be able to issue speeding violations in NYC, the cops must certify that he/she can “visually estimate” a vehicle’s speed of travel and operating a radar/laser measuring device. So if a patrol cop did indeed issued the summon, I assume he had the proper credentials.

I live in NYC and unfortunately been down this road many times before, so I can confirm with certainty that if it was written by NYPD highway patrol, there is almost no possibility of them dismissing a speeding ticket or cop not showing up. Their sole purpose on planet earth is to write speeding tickets and appear at the TVB to substantiate them.

You could of been Jesus himself, with the holy cross sticking out the back window, if they pegged you for speeding, the cop would still robotically write you a summons and the judge will dutifully uphold it. And there is no plea bargain in NYC traffic court, it’s simply guilty or not guilty.

I wouldn’t bother with a lawyer either, that’s a waste of money in my experience. All they do is postpone the hearing as much as they can, with the hopes that the cop doesn’t show up, which doesn’t work anymore since they are now required to do so.

Barring something tragic happening to the cop preventing him from showing up (unlikely) at the TVB, you’re going to end up having to pay the fine.
