What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? NY
Hello, awesome forum, glad i found it!
I was driving my friends AWD escalade truck and was at a light. I was trying to merge into the next lane for about a mile and was unable to, and the driver next to me would not let me merge. At the light i accelerated a little heavy to get in front and get to the next lane so i can make a turn coming up.
To my surprise, there was a cop right beind me and pulls me over. (i was doing the speed limit and didnt even merge into the next lane yet)
He gives me the dangerous driving ticket and unsafe start burning rubber. He said i was drag racing HAHAHA!!!!
Anyways some funny thing i find here, next to me where the lane i wanted to get into, was a 4 cyliudner economy car, like a toyota prius or something. drag racing that?
I had 3 people in the car, one being a a AUX officer and a good friend, ALL of us have clean record and driving license, so why would we drag race? And i drag race in a truck which isnt even mine? i never got a ticket in my life i am 22. And all of us were poiting out we were trying to get into the next lane.
The truck is AWD but the officer says i was able to BURN RUBBER!! CMON!
So what you guys think? i am going to 100% fight this!
Also the ticket states: 'Place of occurence' and the officer put a intersection that was about 4 blocks away from where he stated to me i did these things, or where i tryed to merge. a 100% totally false place of occurence? i dont even think i was on the block where he says on the ticket i did this.
What do you guys think? Any thing i can use for dismissal?
Thanks alot!
