I live in AZ, and I was ticketed today for going 15 over when no one was around but a few cars going the same speed.
However the cop screw up pretty big and rather then go to my window waited behind my car for like a min. After what I see as a gesture to come out. He pulls a gun out on me. Then has me come out of the car. Then ask if he could pat me down. I say no I rather he not. He does anyway. Even though there was nothing in my pockets other then my wallet. Then after confronting him he was trying to say my chain hooked to my wallet and belt loop was enough for him to do it anyway. (It wasn't even covered by my shirt so it shouldn't have matter.)
So I'm wondering should I counter sue as he didn't have a right to do any of that. Just fight the ticket, or since I guess I could take the school go for the school but rather not unless I really have to as it like giving up a "get out of jail free" card. Rather not unless it not safe to.
