What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Alaska
Hello, I am very frustrated by a ticket that I just received and am hoping for some validation that I should fight this in court.
I was pulling a camper with my Chevy Tahoe, going the speed limit, when I suddenly noticed an emergency vehicle passing me from behind with it's lights on. I immediately checked for additional emergency vehicles and saw two more coming up behind me. I pulled to the right and stopped until they passed. About 20 miles up the road I came to the accident that they were going to, it looked like there was an injury.
The following day I received a call from an officer stating that he was going to give me a ticket for failure to yield, a $500.00 fine and six points on my license. He said they were behind me for almost a mile before I noticed him. As soon as I realized there were emergency vehicles behind me I pulled to the right and stopped. I obeyed all traffic laws, as soon as I knew there was an issue. I never heard a siren.
