Okay, so I know a lot of people come in here and claim innocence, but I shit you not, this is exactly how this happened.
I went out to get some food and decided to take the Cobra out because I need to run the fuel out of the tank before I drop the tank. I left my home and started driving to get some food, I live near a school and there was a shitload of kids out, so I was driving 20 in the 25 school zone, I even moved over into the lane furthest away from the kids in case one of them fell or did some stupid shit. Continued on past a Fire/Police station combo doing the same speed as the cars in front and behind me 30 in a 30. Turned onto the main street and noticed a Citation Officer behind me, accelerated to 45 and put it on cruise control since she seemed to be mirroring my lane changes. Meanwhile other cars are pulling away from me like they house is on fire. This went on for about 3 miles until I got to my destination, when I turn in, a cruiser come rolling up behind me and flashes his lights. He says that they got a call that a Red car was traveling at a high rate of speed and peeling out. And I hear the citation officer saying that she heard my car going vrrrrrmmmmmm --- vrrrrmmmmm..... My car is currently limited to 4k rpm and cannot even go past half throttle without falling on it's face due to a fuel pump dying.
So anyways, she says she did not see me going fast, only head a car going vrrrrooommm. Which never even happened in the first place, I was literally doing at or less than the speed limit the entire time. No hard acceleration or anything. What the hell am I supposed to do about this? How do I fight this very serious - bullshit citation?
On top of that, I got cited for having too dark tail lights and tint that is too dark. Cool, not going to bitch about that, because I knew it was coming eventually. That is my own fault.
I literally feel sick to my stomach right now because this has serious implications for my driving record, job ect ect... And I did nothing wrong.
What do?
