^^prob not man. it'll prob cost you more money tryin to fight it... pay it. count it as a loss...no biggie. you dont have a bad driving record (i think) so it's not going to hurt u much.

No radar, and no laser. Its impossible to have followed me for half a mile. He was doing 70 to catch up to me, that DOESNT mean I was doing 70.

I do think you should fight it.
City of Atlanta courts are so busy, I imagine if you challenged it, they'd drop it....

All while traffic is being backed up in the intersection. He didnt even let me pull into a lot.
They are allowed to pace you to get the speed at which you're traveling.
It will ultimately come down to your word against his if you try to fight it and take it to trial. Whose do you think they'll believe?
Best bet is to negotiate with the solicitor and ask for it to be reduced so it doesn't get reported to insurance or points on your license.

I've had a similar encounter. Cop told me he was going to take me to jail if I didnt shut-up.Originally Posted by Nemesis
