Unfortunately, Brads probably correct. It would likely cost more (time, money and effort) to fight it than to pay it or do driving school.
You can do school by internet, dvd or in person. There are even a few comedy clubs around that are pretty decent
69 or 72, it's still over 60 and the judge (or magistrate) probably won't care about the trooper dropping the speed down.
About the only hope you'd have of winning would be:
1) The Trooper fails to appear (not likely, the eat this crap up!
).
2) The Trooper fails to bring in the required documentation (radar log, calibration cert for both the unit and the car (since he was moving-and highly unlikely).
3) The unit is was out of claibration at the time of the ticket (again, not likely).
If she has a clean record, the trooper doesn't object (probably won't) and there was no discernable hazard to her actions, the judge may do a withold, no fine, no points and court cost only.
But in this era of fiscal infidelity among local and state governments, I wouldn't hold my breath for that either
Do the school, pay the reduced cost, guarantee no points on the DL and consider it a life lesson
And for the record, you can pass as long as it's safe to do so, there are no signs or markings to prohibit the move and
you do not exceed the posted speed limit.
Sorry brother
