Hi everyone.
My name is Eric. I moved to PR not too long ago with my wife Sabrina.
We are currently living in Aguadilla.
Not too long ago, we got a red light ticket while turning left at an intersection. But strangely enough, the light was a solid green. The cop wasn't hearing it (our Spanish is not so good) so we got thrown a 500 dollar fine for turning left on a green light. We really couldn't believe it.
So the only way to refute this ticket is to take it to court.
Does anyone have an idea of what to expect in these scenarios? How long it usually takes, how to be prepared?
Most importantly, we were told we would need a translator, so since we don't know many people here, we are turning to threads to find someone.
Our court date is on the 27th of this month (Friday next week).
It will be at the Aguada Tribunal Municipal early morning.
We are open to paying someone for their help. We were thinking of paying hourly, with a minimum amount of hours. But we're open.
If you are interested or know anyone who may be interested, please let us know.
Thanks!
