It really works February 28, 2006 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I just beat my speeding ticket last week by following Mr. Wallace's advice on sending a certified mail to the officer asking for the calibration record, FCC license, training record, etc. The officer didn't have most of it and stated that he didn't get the mail when I showed him the receipt of the certified mail he then said he had some of what I asked for. When we met the judge, He asked to dismiss the case stating that he didn't have the documents I asked for to prepare my case. My case was dismissed and saved me $200 of speeding ticket. I knew I did not speed in the first place and I'm so glad I invested on this book. It's worth the money. I also spoke to Mr. Wallace prior to my case preparation. He has a toll free number and he returns calls...This book is on the top of my list...
Simply The Best Book Of Its Kind-Easy Read-Great Info December 8, 2005 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Out of the 3 books that I recently purchased to help me fight a speeding ticket in my home state of Illinios, the Educated Guide by Richard Wallace was simply the best of them all. It read so easy and was full of helpful information. The one simple tip I learned in the book which I am surprised most people do not think of, is to obtain a copy of your driving history or record from your DMV/Registry and bring it to court along with you. As Mr. Wallace instructs, show it to the court, most of the time the court will dismiss your case because you have a clean record which is EXACTLY what happened to me. I WON! I did not have to pay the $110 and my insurance rates did not go up. I learned so much in this book. I highly recommend it to any parent who has a newly licensed son or daughter or for the husband or wife who cant slow down, like me! I am 52 years old and have never received a speeding ticket but I do drive a little faster than I should, as most of us do! Thank you Amazon for carrying the book and KUDOS to Mr. Wallace for taking the time to write it and the guts to tell the truth about the greed associated with the issuing of speeding tickets by the police. What impressed me also was that Mr. Wallace actually posts on his website the websites of his competition. I especially enjoyed the National Motorists Assocation website, it was most helpful. I learned so much from this experience and after reading this book, I will never receive another ticket again but if I do, I will fight back. Thanks again to both Amazon and Officer Wallace.
Read it to learn the philosophy September 9, 2005 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
My wife and I both were recently rewarded for our lead foots with a personalized autograph session. Hence the desire to order this book and Traffic Ticket Defense by Mark Sutherland. The two combined present a very good picture of how the system works. Using this book though we were able to determine two things, my ticket would very tough to defeat as the officer had me nailed per the checklist that Mr. Wallace provides. I found it easier to pay my $25 go to defensive driving school and be done with it. However, using the same checklist when examing my wifes' ticket we decided to fight it. Long story short we won as the Asst. DA dismissed for lack of probable cause. In short, thank you Mr. Wallace as this book helped us to determine where we should put our resources in fighting these tickets. If nothing else, this book is a good read for those looking to find out a little bit more on how law enforcement works in regards to traffic enforcement. I highly recommend it as it has saved us now AND I am sure in the future as we NOW know what to look for and do when red lights start flashing.
Slowing Down is better, if you can't this book is great! November 30, 2004 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
It's truly great that the author wrote this book. I found it very educating. Even though I have learned to slow down, I found this book to be a very good guide. I remember traveling on some long roads that hardly had any speed limit signs. The author addressed how to fight back if you receive a ticket in cases like this. I know that there are many more important examples in this book but this particular one stuck out with me because of prior experience in traveling long country roads with hardly no speed limit signs and wondering constantly what the speed limit was. Now I know that if I get a ticket in a case like this, I have grounds to fight it. Everyone who drives should read this book whether they speed or not.
