Famous Golfer gets $621 speeding ticket after Masters.

And we all thought professional golf was a game for poised and put together folks who never make mistakes.  Looks like we were wrong and even famous Masters champs make the same mistakes we all do.  Just like you or I, sometimes running late for an important meeting (or Royals game) causes our judgment to lapse and we get a speeding ticket.

You and I driving our Toyota from work to a baseball game is just the same as some famous golfer driving his Mercedes 97 miles per hour from million dollar golf game to another million dollar golf game... right?

The point is speeding tickets happen and when you get one you need to contact a speeding ticket lawyer to help keep them off your record.  If you need help fixing a speeding ticket call our office.

Olazabal pays $621 speeding ticket for driving 97 mph on Ga. highway after leaving Masters

 By: Associated Press

SPRINGFIELD, Ga. - Speeding between the Masters and his next tournament cost Jose Maria Olazabal $621 when a Georgia sheriff's deputy pulled him over for driving 97 mph on a rural highway.
Olazabal, the Ryder Cup captain for Europe, agreed to follow a deputy to the Effingham County Sheriff's Office and pay the speeding ticket in cash. The Spaniard was stopped Monday afternoon traveling from Augusta to Hilton Head, S.C., for the Heritage tournament, sheriff's spokesman David Ehsanipoor said.

Ehsanipoor said Tuesday that Olazabal "apologized, he was cooperative and after the paperwork was done he went on his way." He says the deputy clocked Olazabal's Mercedes exceeding the posted limit of 65 mph on the rural stretch of Ga. 21, a divided four-lane highway near the Georgia-South Carolina state line.  Olazabal's manager, Sergio Gomez, did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment.

The two-time Masters champion wasn't jailed, but his mug shot was taken. Ehsanipoor said the sheriff's department photographs everyone who is brought in on a criminal charge or citation.  Olazabal, inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame in 2009, has won 29 times around the world and played on seven Ryder Cup teams. He won the Masters in 1994 and 1999.

I got a ticket in Kansas but I have an out of state license...Now what?

People call me this question everyday.  You were driving in the state of Kansas on I70 on your way to St. Louis, or Chicago or XYZ city for a wedding or funeral, or vacation and you got pulled over.  But now what?  You can't come all the way from California or Texas to fight a traffic ticket and you don't want your insurance premiums to go through the roof, but you have some questions...

1. Will my home state find out about my ticket in Kansas ?
Yes, if you pay the ticket in Kansas the court will enter in a conviction on the charge and it will get reported to the Kansas Department of Revenue.  The KDR will then report it to your home state.

2. If I send in the money what will happen?
If you send in the money then you are claiming guilt.  If you plea guilty to a moving violation, the court will enter in a conviction on the charge and it will get reported to the Kansas Department of Revenue.  The KDR will them report it to your home state.

3. Will my home state take points off my license?
Probably yes, once your home state has notice of your ticket in Kansas they will access whatever ramifications are warranted by your state's law.

4. Can I just take a defensive driving class and be done with it?
No, some states allow you to take a defensive driving class and send in a certificate and pay a fine for the ticket to go off your record.  For the overwhelming majority of jurisdictions in Kansas this won't work.

5. I know someone in Kansas, can they go to court for me?
Unless they are an attorney NO.  Only an attorney or your self can go to court for you.

6. But I don't think I was speeding what can I do?
About the only thing you can do, aside from travel back to Kansas, is hire an speeding ticket attorney to help you.  The speeding ticket attorney can either set your case for trial and convince a judge you were not speeding, or get something worked out with the prosecutor to assure that the ticket is taken care of.
