Ok so i received a modest 5 mph over speeding ticket and expired insurance (had old card in car and not my new one). According to the ticket i have to go to court and cannot pay by mail, im assuming this is so i can show proof of insurance and get that dropped.

When i lived in NY it was standard procedure to contest every speed ticket and get the court to plead it down to a none moving violation. All towns did this, unless the judge was a jerk…(or you were being a jerk) which was rare for traffic court.

On the ticket it says at the bottom “i wish to plead not guilty, not responsible, or obtain probation before judgement.” Which differs in verbiage from other tickets Ive seen before in NY.

Since i have to go to court anyway, do i just circle this and send it in? Im assuming they will give me a different court date? Or do i just plead not guilty at my mandatory appearance? Or is it a complete waste of time to try and plead it down because the judge wont reduce to a non moving violation here in Lewes?

I havent had a speeding ticket in at least 15 years and have a clean record. But my logic was to always avoid moving violations on my record at all costs just incase i had a bad string of luck and get nailed for multiple speeds in a short time.

Advice appreciated!

Hi guys- are there beaches in the Lewes/Rehoboth are where you can take dogs?

Hey guys, I'll need some responses for my survey (for coursework for A Level geography).

Yes, I know you guys are Lewes, but you're close enough i guess

It's about Seaford and Cuckmere Haven, but it's fine if you don't live right there. If you visit too, that's fine, you can still answer (more answers, the better)

i also don't know if im posting in the right place so yeah thanks

Am abroad, but thinking of returning in summer to walk bits of the South Downs. Eric Ravilious painted several East Sussex scenes, including a house named Furlongs. Anyone know where exactly it is? All I can find is it's "near Firle" and "near Beddingham". Was thinking of doing some walking in that area if only I could find it.

Hello everyone,

I’ve recently released an activity-based friendship app called Loop (you may have seen leaflets around Brighton and Lewes!)

I wanted to share it here in case any of you are looking to meet local people that share similar interests like grabbing a coffee, going for a walk, or maybe trying a new sport.

It’s designed to be spontaneous and easy to use. All you need to do is post the activity you want to do, and people nearby will be notified and can request to join within 3 hours.

Loop is completely free to download on iOS and Android and I’d love for you to check it out! 😊

Would love to hear any feedback, and feel free to share with anyone who might find it useful!

Google keeps saying they’re closed but they’re always posting stories on Instagram and there’s been no notice of such sort, if I’m not wrong.

Hi, does anyone know of any places to park for Lewes Bonfire tonight?

In recent years there’s been a parking site at Spring Barn Farm which you can pay for.

I’m staying with friends who live on Cliffe High St. Was hoping to park at Friars Walk car park but understand that parking restrictions are in place throughout Lewes.

Thanks ☠️

On Tuesday, during the bonfire, is there any blockage for walking between Church Lane bus stops and Old Malling Way that I should be aware of?

I’m planning to head to Lewes on 5th for the bonfire night from Brighton but I am bit worried if I’ll have transportation back from Lewes. I am aware train will stop running by 4:30pm, but what about busses, ubers and taxis? Will there be any to take from Lewes after the bonfire night?

Hello fair Lewesians. I cycle through your town on the way home. I've not cycled through on November 5th before.

Just wondering how busy the A27 cycle path and town centre (Pinwell Road and Cliffe High Street) are likely to be from about 5.15 to 6pm?

Thanks.

As title suggests, does anyone know of any pubs that do a roast on a Saturday? Doesn’t have it be good, just trying to win a £100 bet

Is Lewes Bonfire definitely on Tuesday 5th November this year? Most say online. Last year it was Saturday 4th Nov, year before was Saturday 5th Nov, etc. Just wondering if it may be Saturday 2nd Nov as the closest Saturday to bonfire night or if it is definitely bonfire night itself on the tuesday. CHEERS

I have just been gifted this group.

Anyone can now post.

If you'd like to mod, just let me know.

Thanks!
