Today I have traffic court for a speeding ticket. I was pulled over for going 78 in a 70mph area (freeway).
I was just going from one exit to the next, so getting onto the on ramp it merges left. There was a car right behind me and two to my left and it was merging. No one was co-operating and slowing down/creating a gap for me to merge into. I would have to hit my brakes hard, merge into the car or hit the gas. I opted to hit the gas, as such I merged in front of the two cars, let off the gas to coast to the speed limit and exit the freeway (<1/2 mile).
I didn't make it to the exit before a LEO gets behind me and pulls me over for speeding. I used the throttle to get me out of a sticky situation because other drivers weren't cooperating, do i have any ground to stand on on this?
