what if his name already is Hanz

Change his name to Franz

Dude if you cant get a lawyer to beat this you FAIL.

I'm starting to see how these popo hustled you.

that ****ing panda hustled and made that other panda look like a complete chump

Yeah, us asians have the awesomest bears. Ur all so jealous.

Seriously tho, sucks to be goin to prison. I'd dip if I were you. 2.5 years is a long ass time. Even 1.5 max is a long ass time.

I personally couldn't take it since I am a wimp. I have ringing in my ear for example and I know it would make me insane to listen to it all day in silence of prison.


Also, what would the penalty have been if you had ran from the cops? Shorter than your current stint?

None other than my own experience as a lawyer (did quite a lot of traffic cases, but very few serious ones). There's no comprehensive database of all judgments like they have in the US (I think).

I could link you to a bunch of newspaper articles, but that wouldn't be too helpful, since my experience is with Belgian law only. It's not like you can go "But Mr. Judge, in Belgium I woudn't go to prison for this ****" and expect it to make any impression.

Only real advice I can give you is to seek the best legal advice you can, of several lawyers if at all possible. And don't do anything ******ed like flee the country or try to bribe the judge or something. It will not end well.

You can tell the judge on my behalf that I think he and/or the law is ******ed for this to be possible. I'm sure the words of an anonymous foreign lawyer on the Internet will be sufficient to insta-let you go .

Good luck.

lol belgian law amirite

Legal system in Europe has nothing to with the US. It's pretty much the opposite all the way down.
Sadly, the lawyer kinda is not that important over here, because the judge usually opens a big old book, looks up what you did and then does what it says in this book.

If the judge doesn't have family, and preferably childs that you can pick up from school, you don't really have a base for your final speech. No jury consisting of maybe very narrow-minded people you can fool with some heart-melting stories about how spiritual you are.

And the most ****ed up thing is. The word of a policemen counts, as by law, they have no intent to lie and are considered responsible enough to deal with that. So if he said you've done that, and there's some small things that make his story believable, you did it. Even tho it shouldn't be that way in praxis, if a cop is willing to swear on it, you're busted.

While in fact they aren't. I mean responsible, or not the outcome of a mother****ing Uranium-pesterous inbreed. To become a cop in Austria, a lot of things need to go bad for you first. Your parents have to be farmers and you're the 2nd born son, so you don't get the farm.
The single braincell you cerebral cortex would need to function at least in some way, is shared with basically all other brain and body functions, leaving you with the intellect of an amoeba. You can't be gay, because if, you would become a catholic pastor and your body can't be of any use, you would go to the military.
Only if the above conditions are met and you're the ****ing worst piece of **** to ever breath oxygen in the history of this ****ed up planet, then you can successfully stop thinking for yourself or taking any responsibility for you own life and become cop in Austria.


My English became worse and worse with every glass I drank.

However, before you sign anything at the lawyer, he can only take the standard-rates, and those are covered by my insurance. If he wants more than the standard-rate, I have to sign of course and the insurance doesn't pay for it.

It's just, I can go meet 8 lawyers without paying 250€ to everyone for 20 minutes. It safes money, I like.
I'm gonna meet various other lawyers trough the week, although I doubt that really has an impact.

why don't go on the nurburgring? I love it

wellju, also coming from Austria/Vienna I can feel for you. keep your head up, the 2.5 yrs won't be the final sentence. can't be, godd****

What a joke. I understand the need to crack down. How about taking the car or probation. Jail time for this is insane.

FWIW, and I am now speaking as a human being and not as a lawyer (substantial difference ldo), I think it's a bit unfair to pick on the cop that busted you. You admitted yourself you were racing on a public road, which is, and should be, a punishable offence. The cop noticed what you were doing and reported it. Not his fault that his word is proof enough, and also not his fault that the law apparently is lol-severe for this one.

Saying "well yeah, I did murder that guy, but it's totally unfair they put me in prison b/c they had no proof" is not really a virtuous stance iyam.

Yeah I missed the part where the cop lied or did something other than his job imo.

Sorry to bust your bubble, but the majority in german and austria prisons are muslim immigrants who will torture and rape you all day just because you are no muslim. Dont expect any help from the guards, they get called nazis and fired if they tell the muslims to stop this. Thats some really messed up political correctness here.
It would be better to go in a US state prison, at least you can tattoo a swastika in your face there and get some kind of protection.
Good luck.

You should run away. Go to Mexico or something..

Watch OZ and be like Adebisi

Level?

1.5 years in prison is ridiculous. Good luck man.

Are you serious ?

IMO you probably have decent equity against this case.

I feel sick reading this thread. I have done some illegal 'drag' racing in sweden and when the police come they usually just tell us to stop and get out of there. It's very rare for anyone to ever get jailtime unless someone has caused a serious accident which like never happens.

BTW awesome car, I wonder what kind of times its capable of on the ring?

Anyone know what times the ringtaxi does?

Me at the ring.
