I am not 100% sure but if you do go to court I believe radar picks up the heaviest vehicle it is pointed at. I would do some research on this if you go to court but if the cop had the radar gun pointed at you and behind you was a large truck the speed would not be related to your lighter car.

Once again I heard this some where and am not sure it is true.

lololol. complaining about 100 bucks. I just got a 400 dollar ticket in california. boooo yah, im sure glad we have the highway patrol to "enforce safety". They should just change their name to "tax collection based on who we feel like collecting from". I have been pulled over 4 times, 0 warnings. I have been in a car where a girl got pulled over 3 times and they got 0 tickets. The CHP should literally be shut down and paying out massive class action lawsuits, not given a position of massive power.

example of how legitimate the CHP is:

if you want to submit a complaint they wont allow you to do so through their website, you have to go to their website, print out a form, fill it out and mail it. Making it as complicated as possible for citizens to give feedback to an organization that is supposed to care about safety is just mind boggling and pretty much spot on proof that they know they are doing a miserable job.

LOL. I'm from CA, but haven't ever been pulled over by the CHP. I'm fully aware of their retardedness though.

This ticket was out of state.

You're screwed and that's the reason he pulled you over. Pay it and make sure your tires are the right size.

WTF I wasn't speeding!

So last week on my way out of town for Thanksgiving I'm driving down the interstate with my cruise control set at 70. The speed limit is 65.

Well, obviously, but you know what I mean. No one gets pulled over for going 5 over on an interstate.

[/ QUOTE ]

if the cop wanted to be an extra [censored], he could've written you up for 70 in a 65. its happened to me.

but not because i said "im doing 70 in a 65", however, that's pretty much admitting guilt. NEVER admit that. whenever they ask, you always say you were going whatever the posted limit is.

Oh boy.

I don't have time to respond right now.

Yeah I suspected the CA plates had something to do with it. But it's not like you can prove that.

Tires are the tires that came on the car. It's only a year old. So, unless my speedometer is completely [censored], he was just being a dick.

Now maybe I am completely off here, but can you ask a cop to see his radar gun reading if you don't believe him when you get pulled over?

Well, I said that because he first told me I was going OVER 80, and when you get into the 15+ over the limit range, tickets start getting real expensive.
