Do you think the case will even see the light of day?Apparently its just being filed as a complaint
When the lady called me in for passing her at a
high rate of speed the cop said he wouldve just given me a warning...but i think it all depends on how far the guy who complained takes it. Since he is a retired cop he might talk to the prosecuter and it might go to court... -

Think about it...I am sure he is got all giddy about it- "time to relive the glory days"

get used to being pulled over for bs. it comes with the territory.
in all seriousness though my family has won traffic violation cases against police officers because there were three or four people in the vehicle to testify. tell the court and pay the money to subpoena your three friends and odds are nothing will materialize. if you do go to court, ask the gentleman how he caught up to you if you were going so fast, and then ask that he be served the same ticket.
If you were to ask that question the first thing they would say is...."thats irrelevant."
It's not hard to catch up to someone while going the speed limit.

Apparently your family ran into some pretty stupid cops who tried to lie about what actually happened then..
I've taken numerous traffic tickets to court some with more than enough evidence to prove that i wasnt guilty and i still lost.

how fast were you really going, be honest.

lol all i said was its possible. again, my bad. jury duty and your exploits make you the definitive resource on legal battles involving traffic violations.

A police officer can. They are trained to estimate the speed and make that judgment call.That's one of the funnier statements I have read in awhile!

Kind of like that kid who got his ticket thrown out when a helicopter cop "judged" his speed based on those distance markers.

What does your driving record look like? If this guy called you in, you more than likely did do some sort of "reckless driving". It doesnt help that your a young kid driving a nice car, but random old guys don't usually pick out a random guy driving and decide. "HEY I'M GONNA GET GIT THAT DUDE A TICKET!".
3 or 4 years ago, I called a lady in for reckless driving as she was speeding and swerving through traffic in her GTP on main in WF with a child in the backseat going 75-80. When It came to court, she denied it, they looked at her rapsheet, and charged her with reckless driving, along with almost getting child endangerment(almost lost her kid). Point is, the court is not stupid. If the judge doesn't like you, he will find you guilty. I'm sure you could appeal it afterwards and get it dropped, but I would do your homework before you show up, and hope you dont have many traffic violations. -

You mean the dude that got that ticket a couple years ago for like 265mph on I35 while on his HC51?

Bah, I lost in court because of that. Now, they didn't write down a specific speed but I still lost that one.
