Ive heard once you start questioning the police or thejudges.. you only piss them off more. I think someone else hit the nail on the head. Pay the ticket move on and slow down. This is nuts.

Learn to read what was said before you judge.

I was going 50 miles an hour since that is how fast he was going and I was not about to pass him. My passenger in the truck even remarked at how slow we were going. As we reached the curve on the east side of Garden, the officer pulled over, got behind me then pulled me over. He informed me that he clocked me doing 71 around the corner. I said I couldn't have since I was right behind him. He asked me if I had been drinking (I hadn't) and asked me why I was traveling on the highway. (?) He gave me the ticket and told me good luck.

So, either he was lying or his radar was wrong. Trying to prove he was lying (which I know the game too. Big difference between 70 or less in a 50 and 71 in a 50) would be futile. It would be my word and my passenger's word against his which never works. In court he said he tested the radar, but did not know what time. Also, he tested the radar the next day but again did not know what time. He could not remember, though, if he cited anyone else that shift....
