What is the name of your state? Georgia
I would like some advice on fighting a ticket given to me by a dishonest Georgia State patrolman.
On January 11 at 12:30 am he stopped me and said he clocked me at 62 in a 45 zone. This a a rural area and there must have been 30 cops out that night so I definitely was NOT speeding.
I told him I wasnt speeding and he said "Get out of the truck".
I got out and he said "You are not going to stand here on the side of the damn road and call me a liar"
I again told him I wasnt speeding and asked to see the radar to which he responded "I dont have to show you my damn radar".
He then asked me if I wanted to go to jail and again I asked to see the radar. He then said if I said another word I was going to jail. I said "I dont have a Constitutional right to free speech?" and he replied "You dont have any rights"
Then he said,"Turn around,you are going to jail" I turned around and offered NO resistance but I did say "You want show me the radar because you know I wasnt speeding"
He then said,"You want to see my radar" and I said "Yes"
He took me back to his car and I looked through the window and the radar was BLANK!
I said "It is blank" and he said with a smirk "Yes it is"
he then wrote me a ticket for 62 in a 45 zone. He camse to my truck and called me to the rear of the truck and shined his light on my rear tires and said "You need to get some tires on this truck"
I then said "They are above the legal limit"
He asked "Whats the legal limit?"
I replied "2/32"
He said "I guess you know about that,huh?"
To which I replied,"I have been in the tire business for 15 years"
He said,"I will just warn you about that then"
He wrote on my ticket in the remarks section "Slick tires"
The tires were not slick! They were at 3/32 which is ABOVE the legal limit and he NEVER checked them with a tread depth gauge!
This guy is a liar and a crook!
I filed a complaint against him and I just recvd a call on 3-15 saying that they were investigating it. Yeah right!
I called a lawyer and he said I would lose because he has never seen the judge in this county rule against an officer!
This is ridiculous! Where is his PROOF? I thought the state had to PROVE the case they make against you.
OH and this is ALL on videotape but the state patrol will not give me a copy! You think they are scared of what they saw on the tape?
Like I said the police were stopping anything that moved that night. I was driving my sons truck which looks like a typical teen truck (lowered,etc) and this guy thought he had a teen to bully.
