What a bunch of Bullschnit JohnB! 15 years of doing that job, none of my shifts, EVER had that conversation! What our Dept. had was a loose expectation that each Deputy averaged close to at least 1 traffic ticket per day worked over a month. That however was again averaged by the amount of people working: bottom line is some guys like working traffic and write more traffic violations, so guys like me that detested working traffic could actually write maybe 10 a year and everyone was happy. That having been said, technically speaking if you were driving too fast to stop when the storm blew in, or the deer ran out, or the kid ran out then you were driving too fast...but realistically some cops just don't have any common sense (like some posters here) or compassion and just love writing tickets...sounds to me like with the conditions described, the fact that there was only one car involved so no need to assign blame, and no serious injury, it was a chickenschnit ticket. Advice: Go to court with intent of pleading not guilty, if it's like NY they will have you meet with an ADA who will offer a reduced charge, or recommend to the Judge that it be dismissed. This of course is based upon thesupposition that Mom doesn't have a ton of violations. here in NY you would prolly just end up paying the Court Surcharge. No Attorney needed.!
