I know this is long but I had to explain. If I do fight this with a written decleration, If I am found guilty can I then take the traffic school and lower fine? or will that option be out the window thanks......
I was on the I-8 freeway at 8pm, traffic was light for a Friday evening. I was in the far left lane and because I was coming from a Casino about 30 miles away. I was reported doing 82 in a 65. I have evidence of when I left so I can calculate how long it should of taken me to get to the location where the officer said I was speeding. I can use this to my advantage so I can prove I was not speeding all the way and got caught finally. I am not someone who speed and weaves in and out of traffic. I was going with the flow, which was around 70 or so mph. Like I said traffic was light but there was still cars out it wasn't just me. My exit was coming up in about 1.5 to 2 miles. I had to get over. I had my blinker on but the cars to my right would not let me over. I had several cars directly behind me and had plenty of room in front of me. I decided the safest, most efficient way for me to get over was for me to accelerate so I had room to make a safe pass. When I finally got over one lane I stayed there for a few moments then got over one more time. I used my blinker on both passes. Right after the passes I noticed the lights behind me, my first though was not that I was getting pulled over. My first thought was it was an ambulance, because I knew there was one behind me from a few miles back and I only saw red and white lights. So my instinct was to get over so it can pass, there was a car to my right, so I increased my speed to get over in time. When I got over I realized that he had not gone by and that he was pulling me over. So I was trying to find an exit, I just moved here in July and was not use to the area. I found a spot on the side of the freeway and pulled over, I was hoping to get off the freeway because it is safer for both of us. I was between the freeway and a entrance ramp, not the best place, over his loudspeaker he told me to go forward more, I did. When he got to my car he asked why I got over the way I did with no room behind me. So I explained. He thought I was going to try and run. He gave me a ticket for the speed and my tint, I am from Vegas and never had a problem with the tint. He never explained what speed he had me going..
One exit before, from where I believed he was sitting There was a car that was going at a much faster rate. I believe that he picked out my car because I was getting over two lanes, and also because of the type of car, a 2000 Civic Si (racer). Even though nothing was done to it.... Me being only 18 didn't help either.
He made my tint non correctable so I have to pay a fine. I wasn't sure If I had to take it off. I was then pulled over by another CHP officer about 4 days later. I told him about my other ticket and that it was non correctable. He was much more informing and nicer. He explained what I had to do ect ect. He gave me a fix it ticket because I did not have the other one in my car. The speed on this ticket, same freeway same general area was 65 mph. Does that help me?
