How to Fight a Speeding Ticket in Rosendale Town Court

Have you been issued a speeding ticket in the town of Rosendale, New York? Are you having difficulty making heads or tails of your speeding ticket? Then this guide was created for you by our attorneys to help you familiarize yourself with the world of speeding tickets.

The Town of Rosendale is situated in the center of Ulster County, and was settled about 1685 by immigrants from Europe. The Rondout Creek flows through the middle of town, in a northeasterly direction. The area is served by Interstate 87, which runs concurrently with the Governor Thomas E. Dewey Thruway or New York State Thruway, a toll road.

Interstate 87 serves many open stretches of road where drivers often lose sight of the changing speed limits. Furthermore, the rolling hills and change of topography can easily land a driver with a hefty speeding ticket.
