Re: Speeding ticket appeal (Ticket no. .................)

Your Honor,

This letter is to formally request your good office for an appeal with regard to a speeding ticket issued to me on (Date) against my vehicle license plate no. ................

Sir, I am a law abiding citizen, who sincerely respects the traffic rules of the country, and I try my best to follow the same without fail. I take full responsibility for my actions and inactions for which I have been issued a traffic ticket by the honorable officer.

I work at a retail store in (Location). I earn around (Amount) per month. After paying off my monthly house rent, electricity bills, water bills, gas bills, food and other necessary expenses, there remains a very little amount of savings for future emergencies. Hence, this unexpected traffic citation is causing me great hardship.

Any kind of recklessness towards traffic rules is something that is not in my character. I have always tried to drive my vehicles carefully, and have always followed the rules and regulations in the right spirit. This is the first time - this mistake has happened inadvertently.

I regret this undesirable situation, which has been deeply humbling. I must state that I will be even more vigilant in abiding the traffic laws here onwards. I would appreciate any kind of compassionate leniency the court may grant in this matter.

Thank you for your valuable time in considering my humble request.

Sincerely,

(Signature)
