Hello,
I'm looking for advice in how to best a speeding ticket that was given to me in which the cop is lying.
I was driving with my 1 year old and dog with my cruise control set at 74, in a 70. I was driving in the right lane. The cop was parked on the shoulder of the right lane and when I got up to his car, he immediately turned on his lights. He said that I was going 8mph. Which is impossible because I was set at 74. When I told him this he said well he clocked me from behind him going 88 and that I slowed down real quick...but how is it possible to slow down so quickly? When his car doesn't even look like a cop car from far away. There was a white car in the left lane in front of me (my car is also white). I think he might have meant to pull them over. He also asked me if I wanted him to check his radar and I told him yes, but he never showed me it working or brought it up again.
I talked to a lawyer and he said the most he could do is get the ticket reduced and make it so no points are taken. But I don't want to pay for a ticket when I was NOT speeding. At all. I've never done over 80 in my ford focus...not even a fast car. Not to mention my baby was in the car. As well as a dog!
Please, I need any help because this is not fair and completely false about me speeding.
Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
