Sec. 545.352. PRIMA FACIE SPEED LIMITS. (a) A speed in excess of the limits established by Subsection (b) or under another provision of this subchapter is prima facie evidence that the speed is not reasonable and prudent and that the speed is unlawful.
There is a written statue that the OP is accused of breakingcoolerguy12 said:
I'm a firm believer that the state has to have a written statute that you violated in order to charge you with a crime. They can't just say "you went too fast, pay us money." I don't care about wasting a judges time. In order to break the law there has to be a law to break.
For example, in college I got a ticket for "riding an authorized vehicle on a roadway" while riding a cooler to class. I was able to prove that my vehicle was classified as a motor assisted scooter and could be operated in the same places as a bike. Just because a cop wrote a ticket doesn't mean a law was broken. Many folks here would have told me to just pay the ticket and stop with the sovereign citizen crap.
