What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? IOWA
So last night I was driving to the same place my friend was going. As he slowed down for the red light i, stupid as i am, looked both ways and ran it. And continued on the way, maybe going 10 mph at the most over. I was pulled over and given a ticket for drag racing. The officer didnt clock me. Only saw me run the red light and had no idea there was another car until i mentioned that i was tryin to beat him. He was a capital police state trooper meaning he patrols the capital building area and it took him at least 30 mins to find something to charge me with. Since when did running a red light turn into drag racing. We werent at a stand still peeling out just ran a red light.
I work in transportation industry, and losing license would cost me a job cuz id be uninsurable. Do i have a chance to win this if i get an attorney??
