I was riding through a school zone in North Carolina at 3:20, which is after school hours at this school (it lets out at 2 pm). The road is a 55 and I was clocked at 48 by the officer who pulled me over. He seemed to think that over an hour after the kids leave the school is school hours. He also thought that the school zone speed limit was 25 all the time, when it was clearly posted as 35 DURING SCHOOL HOURS. This and one other speeding ticket which I got within 24 hours of this one is the first one I've ever gotten. So I'm not sure, but I can handle this in the court myself right? I know it is kind of harsh for speeding in a school zone. But I shouldn't need a lawyer right? Also is it possible to go after this ignorant cop who was obviously just pulling over anybody to give out more tickets? You're help is greatly appreciated.
