ticket for drag racing? wtf?
few days ago around 11pm going to my friend's house I get a ticket for drag racing by the Orland Park Police.PIGS!!
It was a two lane road turning to one lane. I was stopped at a red light. approaching me from the rear is a white eclipse with exhaust and before he comes to a stop the light turns green and he gets in the right lane and we both kinda took off, but not full acceleration. what we didn't know was that there was a cop behind him. I hit around 40mph in a 30 mph zone and slow down. the eclipse kept going to about 55mph...then the cop turns on his lights. he pulled us over and told us that we were drag racing. I have to go to court in July. I think it's bullsh*t because we weren't really racin. he wasn't even at a complete stop. I plan on taking pics of the road that we were on to prove that he just past me because it was a two lane turning into one. I also plan on having documents to prove that my exhaust is 50 state legal, and that probably the loud noise might have made the cop think that I was racing.
the funny thing is that he calls for reinforcements and blocks us both in a dead end street, like we're gonna take on a highspeed chase. probably watched 2fast 2furious... damn pigs. any good suggestions to help me out? we're both gonna meet up before the court date to get our stories straight...so, we don't look like we're making sh*t up.
