I am in Illinois.
I was traveling in the middle lane going 55 in a 55 zone. A police officer then passes me on my left. I change lanes and follow him. The officer increases his speed and I match him. Remember, I am currently BEHIND the officer. I looked down at one point and saw that the officer was going nearly 80 in the 55 zone. It should be noted that the officer did not have his lights on and there was nobody infront of him to follow. The officer then made a very unsafe lane change, without signaling. This startled me so i began to slow down. The officer then slammed on his breaks, I passed him on the left and when I passed him I know for a fact I was going 55. He then zipped behind me and pulled me over. From what I understand this is entrapment. Anyone have any advice?
It should also be noted that I have never had a moving violation.
Thanks.
