(This is in San Diego, California)
OK... guilty as charged... but but but....
Can someone advise me on this?
What is speeding?
There is an intersection here that is a speed trap.
First, one turns the corner and begins to drive. One starts from 0.0.
This happens at a school, so everyone is cautious to go slowly.
Then, the school is passed and everyone speeds up to 35. Naturally,
it is easy to over shoot. I overshot to 48. And there was a cop in ONE SPOT
who then pulled out to get me. But there is the issue.
One second after that spot, one MUST start to slow down. There is a red light coming.
And everyone slows down. So while I technically was speeding, I was
only speeding for about two seconds - about 100 feet.
Can the police really ticket one for this? Can the ticket be contested?
The cops just happen to wait at the single point where everyone speeds
up and overshoots.
