OH Speeding Ticket controversy for me!!!

[Scav]

So driving to work this morning and for those that know Higgins Road in Schaumburg, there is a stretch through some woods where you go pretty fast. I got pulled over by a sheriff saying I was going 64 in a 45. Now, I would almost guarantee I was probably going faster then that, but the guy was like "I have to give you a ticket but I will give you a court diversion slip" So I automatically am thinking that he doesn't want to go to court. When he comes back with the ticket, I ask "Can I please see the radar gun" he says "It is already cleared". I say "Ok" and that is that. Now, there is NO WAY that he got me on the gun given he was going the other way down Higgins, and there is no way that he could have paced me because he was going the other way?

Anyone know if there is a protocol in radar gun clearing? I am going to contest it and go to court, not only will he probably not show up, but after that I think I have a decent case.

Now, I would almost guarantee I was probably going faster then that,

I wonder how much this is worth to him...your public and free will posting of your guilt beyond a reasonable doubt?

Sir, would you do that to me?

[Mortimer]

So long as this is worth more to you than he....of course not.

Yeah.....I just noticed some flaws also

1) He didn't ask for me to even sign the ticket
2) He didn't fully describe the Illinois Vehicle Code (Just put 11-601 (B), missing (01,03,05,07) on the end)

Court is also at SKOKIE, not Palatine

next time you're there, check out the speed limit posting..I looked once and there aren't many signs..maybe not from between when you turn off of AH Rd onto Higgins and when he pulled you over?

[Mortimer]

There are times when I must stand up for what is right....even if it sides with the fuzz.

You admit you were well over the speed limit....and being a clear and present danger to fellow incompetents on the highway.






Nya?






The guy didn't stop you for 47. He stopped you for 65---which you admit was a little on the low side.



Why fucl< with this?

Sir, because he has zero proof, and I have a prestine record. That alone will get me at maximum a fine. And when he doesn't show up, it costs me nothing and I get a day off of work.

COME ON FRIDAY COURT DATE
