If you were indeed driving the vehicle that was positively identified as exceeding the posted speed limit, what could your defense possibly be?

An unknown speedometer malfunction could exist within Hoops's vehicle. Maybe it registers five miles too slow. If Hoops drives five miles faster than the speed limit, then in reality, Hoops is driving 10 mph over the limit.

Back in February, Hoops "said":http://toledotalk.com/cgi-bin/tt.pl/article/209366#209371

It is just a hearing, so I will explain myself. He was sitting on Reynolds, by Nebraska *where the speed limit increases from 35 mph to 45 mph.* I was on my way to work and sped up before the sign.

It's possible that a creative story could be devised. That's why some law firms cost a lot of money.

Maybe confusion exists in the Ohio laws about when the speed limit change from 35 mph to 45 mph applies to drivers. 

Did weather issues exist that could limit visibility, such as sun glare, fog, or rain?  But then the judge would say that the weather should have forced you to driver slower than the limit. 

It might be easier to convince the judge if the limit went the other way, decreasing from 45 to 35 mph.

But be inventive, plead no contest, and maybe the fine will be reduced. 

The good part about court is listening to the excuses by others  and then watching the judge berate people. It's entertaining. 

Hoops, you will have a good time either way. Dress smartly.
