It wasn't me, officer

Today, I was pulled over and was given a $300 ticket for going 90mph on a 70mph highway. The cop swore he saw my silver car darting in and out of traffic. A couple of minutes earlier that exact car had passed me while I was following the speed limit. FML

take it to court, you could easily dispute your way out of it.

You could take it to court. Cop cars have a camera in the front windsheild and you could prove it wasnt your car with the license plate.

hmm you might of been speeding he would of taken your plate and clocked you just before he pulled u over

Well obviously you were going so far over the speed limit that you warped spacetime and passed yourself. If that isn't ticket-worthy, nothing is!

Honest mistake or lazy mistake, it's too hard to tell. You should be able to prove your innocence thanks to the police cam, but you might get still get screwed anyway and lose even more time and money. *shrugs* Good luck. You're gonna need it.

been there done this. if you told the cop that you were passed by a similar vehicle you will def win this case in court. probable doubt will easily clear you.

I'm still trying to figure out how this speeding fast car that the cop mistook you for ended up behind you for long enough to come flying past minutes later. And where you live that a +20 speeding ticket is three hundred dollars. Cool story though.

This sounds like something that would happen in Wisconsin to a driver with Illinois plates. Seriously, Wisconsin troopers are douches, and it sounds like this one was too.

That's what you get for driving a boring silver car. Why is pretty much every freaking car on the road these days boring black, silver, or white or some shitty variation of it?

Damn I hate cops. All the terrible crime in the world and all they care about is speeders.

I'm terribly sorry for pressing ydi almost out of reflex after I had only read the first sentence. =P
