95 in a 65 zone.....you're not my type of a safe driver. Now you'll get a lesson and be, I hpoe, a less dangerous driver in the futur. I would even recommand you get a Stang or anything else and stop contribuing to the bad reputation of Camaro owners being too fast drivers.
Sorry for you, but not for us who will be safer with your type of driving on the roads.

I wasn't.... I was meaning being a few minutes late for a sales job is no big deal because you work for yourself... Only hurting you if you're late, no sense going 95 in the snow with traffic to get there on time...

Geez... you got a soft spot for used car salesman or something? I can't see how you took what I said as looking down on his job.

I mean, if he didnt catch me with the radar, there is no proof i was going that fast right? Is there anything i can do about this? I checked the dmv website, and for my state, New Mexico, it says if you get 12 points in a year they might revoke your license, and im a used car salesman, so i need my license for my job. Anyone with legal experience please help! Thanks in advance.

P.S. i love my camaro. I want to be able to drive it legaly!
You don't need radar to know that someone was going vastly in excess of the speed limit. First, there is lidar which is like radar but uses laser light instead of radio waves. They can also time you as you travel a known distance (from say a highway sign to an overpass). Distance divided by time = speed. Or they can gauge you with their own speedometer. If they know they're going 65, and you fly past them you must have been going much faster than 65. Similarly, they could use the speed of traffic as a rough guide to know you were going grossly in excess of the limit. This can only give an approximation, but its still enough to give them a reason to pull you over.

So there are plenty of ways that they can know you were going over the limit without the use of radar, some of which are completely undetectable.

That plate alone is gonna get you popped more times than you care to be! NOT SMART Cops are mic'd up more and more these days and that with the recording from the onboard camera, you better get a lawyer or plead no contest and ask for driving school

Because "Enjoy the bus, and working at McDonalds. Oh and late for a used car sales job??? LMFAO" sounds like you are belittling him just like you are belittling anyone who works for McDonald's. No reason for that.

As others have said, this is not a speeding ticket it's a careless driving ticket so no need to write in speed on the ticket.

95 mph on snowy wet roads??? I don't see you getting out of this one even with a lawyer.

When you go to court, have someone drive you because they are probably gonna yank your license right then and there.

You are very lucky you didn't kill someone or kill yourself.

Here in Cali, a LEOs word is proof/ Thor's Righteous Hammer of Oh Shit. You're pretty much F'ed but id say get a Lawyer, back petal the shit out of your statement (claim you thought it said "At least you weren't going 95", cry, pay who needs to be paid, do favors, ask why the speed was not written. Basically do what needs to be done my friend.
