No idea how many dialects there are in the German language, but it's definitely more than three. I speak 'high German' which is considered to be the 'cleanest' and clearest, with very little dialect. I actually grew up on islands off of the north coast in Germany. Many people do not realize that Germany has any islands but there are quite a few. For anyone interested, google Helgoland which is the island I lived on from age 10 until 18. It is approximately one square mile (yes, you are reading this correctly. Lol) in size and much of it is a sandstone mountain and tourist mecca. It is located several hours with a ship from the mainland and has a vast history. I'm actually going to Germany from the end of July until the end of August this year to visit my family and I have a trip to the island planned.Which German dialect as there are three (or more)?

Tacomapup = My court date for my 'reckless driving' charge is this coming Tuesday and I have come to terms with the possibility of being convicted and losing my CDL.
GREETINGS Tacomapup,
Has your attorney/lawyer offered any possibilities of plea? Entering "guilty" without options of charge(s) reduced is insane.
I'm unfamiliar with the "commonwealth" laws as there used to be a "prayer for judgement" decision (in Cal., NC) that when offered resulted in lesser conviction and is a one time deal. Such "prayer" could not be used again in a specified time period or ever, I dunno.
79 in 70 zone is much better with less potential for License loss, well, using the unknown to any court attribute: logic.
Hoping you'll have a reduced result to help your future.
CHEERS!!
Thank you for the update and good luck on the appeal. My experience is that the next level has better things to do than hang a driver for speeding and they should be more cooperative. I have dealt with the DA at the next level rather than just the police and/or the judge and the DA has a completely different mindset. One time in NY I even got to deal with the DA at the local hearing with success (same fine, different charge, it is all about budgets and the money anymore). But I didn't have to notify anyone about my ticket.Hello to all. My court date is behind me and as it was put to me afterwards, was : 'Judge Saunders had a bad day'. I was convicted of reckless driving with 81 mph in a 70 zone. Originally, the charge was for 88 mph and had the Judge reduced it by just one more mile, I would have gotten a speeding conviction instead. But this was not to be and most others that day in court got 'nailed' as well. So now we are appealing the conviction in the higher court. The next hearing will be sometime in September and nothing changes between now and then. In other words, I get to keep my license and don't have to pay any court costs of fine right now.
The worst for me is that we had to give up living in Greensboro, NC. I LOVED living here, - our beautiful 3 bedroom apartment with vaulted ceilings, pool, tennis court and all the other perks that gated communities offer down here. I had also made some wonderful friends here and I will miss them terribly. My fiance' did not pass his physical (years of beating his body up for others and he's had too many surgeries and is full of arthritis) and so we went back to our old company to work for them. It's line hauling instead of TLO and we are working nights. But I'm home every day and live much closer to my daughter, which is a blessing. It'll take me a while to get used to living up north again. The winters... Bbbbrrrr!!!
I do want to quickly share my brief experience with Hogan transport. We went to St. Louis for training/ orientation and other than the fact that they didn't hire my partner; they were amazing and if they run their business the way they ran the training, I would highly recommend them. The benefits are above and beyond, the pay is excellent (for team drivers; do not know the rate for solo drivers) and they offer tons of perks to their employees. Everyone was very professional and their equipment is top notch and very well maintained. There is nothing in it for me by recommending them and I'm simply sharing my experience and impressions. I would have really liked working for them. Maybe some day...
I want to thank all of you for your nice thoughts and well wishes for my court date. Tomorrow is another day and so I move on.... that's life!
