What is the name of your state (only U.S. law): Louisiana
I am a veterinary student and I went in for my morning rotation. Around 9:30 AM I was paged that I had a phone call. It was my room-mate who woke up to find my beloved dog unresponsive. I rushed out of the clinic as fast as I could. I admit I was wrong to do 87 in a 55 zone, and I know I am guilty for that. The officer was crude and didn't seem to care and took his time getting the paperwork done. I was polite but very upset because of my situation. By the time I got home my dog had expired. I know this is not really an excuse for speeding... but my emotions got the best of me.
How should I handle this? Will the judge take my situation into consideration? Any help is appreciated...
