First time Pulled over in the Z

Elan

Something similar happened to me. Cruisin through some backroads doing my tipical 10 over. I don't do anything faster than that. The road I was on was one of those that changes from a 45 to a 35 as it gets residential. Well not being familiar with the road and the distraction of enjoying such a beautiful day, I fly by a cop doing about 55. He whips a U-turn and nails his front bumper on the curb (lol). I guess it was the arrest-me-red sports car with a loud exhaust that got his attention. I pull over in a neighborhood before he even puts his lights on. Eventually gets out and the first thing he said was "I clocked you on the radar doing 55 in a 35, would you like to contest that?" I knew I was getting a ticket. I told him I thought it was a 45 but he wasn't having it. Goes back and writes me a ticket. I asked him if he could lower it to 14 over as I pulled over before he even had to turn on his lights. ( 14 over so it isn't reported on my driving history). Says no he can't change what the radar says (bs). I watch him go back to his car after I signed the citation and he starts looking at the damage he had done when he curbed his bumper. That was my little victory.

Anyways go to court and speak to solicitor. Pulled the pilot card and said that I didn't want my company to see a 20 over ticket on my license. She was very nice and understanding and lowered it to 49 in a 35 because my driving record was clean. Told me that it wouldn't be reported and there would be no points. Still got stuck with a $315 fine.
