Help with Traffic Ticket
I got stopped by the Fulton County Police today while driving home with my parents in the Evo. We just left "Whole Foods" in Duluth, made a right hand turn out of the parking lot and onto State Bridge Road. I saw that there was a turn only that turned into Publix on the right, so I signalled and changed lanes to the left lane and then after I was past the white hash marked Publix turn lane, I re-signalled to get back into the right lane again to make a right onto highway 141 to head back to my house. Immediately after I turned right, the cop was right on my tail and pulled me over. I commented to my parents that I had no idea what I did wrong. The cop asked if I knew why he stopped me and I said no idea, and he said I went straight, right through the right turn lane at Publix. I immediately told him I signalled and got into the left lane and then re-signalled after I passed the Publix turn only. He said that I didn't, and that I went straight through. This cop blatently lied and wrote me a ticket for Improper Driving on Roadway. What I figure is that I need to get a lawyer right away and fight the ticket, because I'll be the first person to admit a mistake, but the officer lied and my parents saw me signal and get over to avoid the turn lane into Publix. I was so mad that after the cop left, I went back and drove the route again and the cop already had a flashy Mustang pulled over at the same spot. Also, as the officer approached my car, he tapped the rear spoiler as if he was happy he pulled over a high-performance car. I was polite with the officer and this is the first time I have been ticketed in GA and PA for that matter, so my record is clean. Does anyone know a good lawyer that will represent me? I hope the officer has a video of what he saw because my car clearly signalled and did not go straight through the turn only like he accused me of doing. Any help would be appreciated. Thx! Dave
