Your problem is going to be that you can't say for sure how fast you were going. Did you look down at the speedometer when you saw the cop? "Maybe 60- 65 mph" in a 50 mph zone statement in court will likely get you the 81 mph ticket. You need to talk to the deputy prosecutor that handles traffic court and explain your story before the court date. He/she will likely lower the ticket to the 60/65 mph in a 50 zone to avoid the court hassle.

All cops are not cut out of the the same "cookie cutter mold". They are just like any other job classification. I've worked with good ones and bad ones. There are good cops just like there are good farmers, businessmen, preachers, etc. There are also bad ones just like there are bad farmers, businessmen, preachers, etc.

I agree the court costs are outrageous but they are set by your county prosecutor and judge to go towards their budgets. The state mandates judge's salaries and the counties have to come up with a way to pay them. The court costs are what costs so much and this goes to help pay the judge, prosecutor and staff. The small fine in front of the court costs goes to the state of Indiana for the police academy not for new fire or police buildings.
Good luck to you in whatever you decide to do. I've tried to help but will defend myself and the police profession.
