I GOT SCREW BY MORROW POPO

damn tim, u shoulda hit vtec on his bitch ass loll jp

you can fight it since he doesn't have any proof nor records of him saying that he's pacing you. He only said he did 55 and couldn't catch up to you, that's not enough evidence or proof of pacing. ;)

Story:
I was driving in a 40 zone doing around 43-44 mph. I saw the red light changed to green about 100 yards ahead of me but there were a cop car there so i signal to the left and continued on. As I pass about 3 intersections, still doing 43-44 mph, I signal right to make a turn to go home when the cop turn on his lights and pulled me over. At first I thought it was a signal change violation...maybe I didnt wait 3 seconds or something. :screwy: Well he approaches the car (I drive an S2000 btw) he asked me for my license and said did I know what is the speed limit is on that road.

I said " 40 " . He said " well you were speeding through that zone at 55! mph! 55! :eek: ... I was like " sir, I was going 43 mph, because my car has a digital tach...I am pretty sure of my speed. He said "I dont care, I was going 55 mph and couldnt catch up with you, so you were going pretty fast."

WTF!? I said "how did you calibrated my speed? " he answered " my patrol car" LOL! ... Now this is where the screwing me over part continues.

He went back to his car and wrote me a ticket.

He came back up and said" well after looking it through, I put you down for doing 54! mph in a 35 mph construction zone! " WTF!?

I said, "how did I get 54 when you said I was doing 55? :???: " And construction zone?" I passed that area like 5 minutes ago.

Come on guys... I have lived in this country for a pretty long time, and from what I see and have now experienced, the majority of the police officers out there are unreasonable and :screwy:

I dont know how I could have went 10 miles more when I, a grown man with common sense, know that there is a cop car driving beside me.

:lmfao:

Fight the fucking ticket, don't be a dumb ass and pay for it. :goodjob:

Only person that can obtain a police video is an attorney prior to a case, I am pretty sure. The police officer was in the wrong. You should have asked to see his radar gun, if he says he paced you then he has no case. Either way you should just go into court dressed nicely. Tell the judge the truth about what happened. And normally the judge will side with you. But I have heard cases where the judge has sided with the officer. You could always use the court appointed attorney. =) Best of luck to you sir!

^ thanx man hopefully everything will be ok.

yea ask for the dash cam video asap

Just my 2 cents

The officer is claiming he could not keep up with you. ask how fast he had to go to catch you.

This is simple math imo.

someone doing 43-44, the cop would not be able to catch you if he was doing the same speed, thus he would have had to go faster to catch you. the quicker he wanted to catch you the faster he would need to go.

How far behind you (when he "caught up") til when he hit his lights? ie. how long was he "pacing" you?

Also was this a marked construction area? were there signs stating construction zone ended?

Just some things to help your case poss.

good luck.
