Help Needed To Fight Ticket in Georgia!
I just got a ticket in the Atlanta area (specifically, on GA 400 southbound),
and I was hoping someone might have some suggestions on how to fight it.
Details: Traffic was very heavy; motorcycle cop pulled over on right
side of road with laser pointed right at me. He radios to a patrol car
about 50 yards further down the road, who pulls behind me and turns
on his lights. I pull over immediately. 79 in a 55 zone.
I asked the officer to see the laser gun reading and he tells me that
I can't, because it is in the hands of the motorcycle cop about 150 yards
back. Is this enough grounds to have the ticket dropped? I also
asked him the accuracy of his laser gun and he told me that it is 100%
accurate (no error) which seems wrong to me.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance. Please feel free to respond to the
article in rec.autos.driving, but I'd appreciate a copy forwarded to
dknight@iterated.com (the account I'm posting this from is a joint
account). Thanks!
