What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? NY
I received a Failure to Comply ticket at the Whitestone Bridge Toll plaza. The details of the ticket are the following:
in violation of = 1102
VTL = box filled
TR INF = box filled
As I approached the toll, I was in the farthest lane to the left, the lane next to me started backing up. I slowed down and started to go through the ez pass. As I was going through, I noticed the officer with his back turned wave his arms. I continued through watching him but without hitting the gas. He then turned around and slammed on my wife's (passenger side) window and yelled to stop. I immediately stopped and he went ahead of my car and moved another vehicle over from the lane next to me and positioned that car in front of mine. He then came over yelling and screaming saying he told me to stop and I looked at him with a glazed look. Wanted to know why I didn't stop. I took offense at his aggressiveness and said he was next to my car when he first waved his hand. Then I told him to calm down because I had 3 young kids in the car. Could clearly tell he was having a bad day. Ended up getting this ticket because of the yelling to begin the conversation. He didn't ask for my license and registration until he got annoyed with me yelling back about his position next to my car and slamming my window. I think I was in protection mode because of my family being in the car. I really think the only reason he gave me the ticket was because I yelled back. Do I have any chance of beating this ticket?
