I got a ticket for "Unlawful Speed"(60MPH IN A 35MPH street) in Florida. The ticket says "Moving Radar #blablabla Opposite Direction". The cop was on a motorcycle coming my way and did a U-turn and got me. He said he wouldn't be appearing in court and that if I show up personally, they'll give me a lower price on the ticket and I won't get any points on my Driver's license and the insurance won't get a hold of it. I need to know what to say in court. This is my first time, I'm 18. I guess I'll go dressed professionally. My friend told me you don't really have to. Any suggestions on what I should say? I'm pleading not guilty since the cop won't be there. I read the other post on this type of thing but didn't find the exact thing I'm looking for. Is there anyway to say I wasn't speeding? I mean, what can I do? Thanks guys.

Subpoena the officer to be there...then if he doesn't come you can most likely get the ticket dropped due to lack of a prosecution witness. That's what I did with my last ticket and the officer didn't show so the judge just immediately dropped it.
