If you are afraid of dirty looks, you should not be driving. Where did you read that I was afraid of dirty looks Where does it say that I did break the law. I admitted it The officer did fucking tailgate me into speeding though. He should have put his lights on immediately, not tailgate me and WAIT for me to speed up so I could merge over. I mean what a FG. Didn’t know he was a cop until I sped up. What was I supposed to do? SLOW DOWN in the left lane |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76494960 I was on the fucking highway and hundreds, if not thousands of car each day got at least 70-90 in the 55. Literally all the cars go over 55mph. In fact, I wasn’t even initially going 81 but I saw a car tailgating me in the left lane so I sped up so I could merge over and let the car pass. (It was the fucking officer) For fucks sake if you’re in a residential area and the speed limit is 45, you get swerved around and dirty looks from people passing you going 55-65. Richmond, Virginia... Where everyone runs red lights and no one does shit. What a gay fucking experience and officer. Stupid. Speed limit's are put in place for a reason. I seriously hope they send the police out to your address. and you get arrested and jailed and a driving licence ban. Just because other cars do it, doesn't mean you have too. what if you killed someone or hurt them? you lot are worse than drunk drivers. |
Red John User ID: 60379627 Canada 08/01/2020 07:47 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Wow, that sucks OP. However, I don’t think there’s a clause in the speed law that says “Shall not exceed posted speed, unless everyone else is speeding.” Quoting: Off Switch On another note, fight the charge. They might give you a deal to plead to a lesser charge. If it goes to trial, look up the problems with radar on the internet, then use them against the officer. if the cop was speeding and raced up on OP without the lights then it's a form of entrapment also the cop is in violation of the traffic law by speeding without the lights on if the cop had the lights on then it's still entrapment if the intent was to get someone to speed to "get out of the way" of the cop cops tailgate without the lights on to run your plate |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 73537519 United States 08/01/2020 08:09 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | If the officer's actions resulted in your going over 80 mph, then I think that you could argue that it was "entrapment." Something very similar to that happened to me but because it happened out of state, I just paid the bill - maybe I was too chicken to challenge it. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 79053616 United States 08/01/2020 08:20 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Not going to court is a very bad idea, take a state approved online driving course, your lawyer will use this and other factors to get it reduced, he may also recommend you get your own speedometer calibrated, if its off this will also help you. Virginia state police are some of the most decent and professional police I've come across throughout the country. In va anything greater than 15mph over the posted speed limit can be wreckless driving, automatic court date not just a cash ticket. |
