Got a ticket today

Post by swamper »

Took a 240 mile ride today most of it in very twisty roads. The Sierra Nevada Mountains are the best, HWY 70,. Any way I come around a turn to a straight and a long the straight I pass a CHP. Look down at the speedo and it's at 65, so I figure I'm going 60-61 tops. Don't think much of it until 5 or so minutes later CHP with red lights on pulls me over. Says I'm writing you a citation for excessive speed. I say how can I talk you out of this, reply was you can't my mind is made up. I said exactly what did I do. He says you where doing 66 in a 55 when you saw me and you didn't slow down at all. I said that's because I thought I was within the speed limit. Long story short he gave me a citation and tells me next time you see a CHP slow down. I say just being honest here and figured I wasn't in the wrong. He then tells me to have a nice day. I told him he had already screwed that up. So then he takes off, after a few minutes getting my helmet and poo together I take off. Couple miles up the road he setting there waiting for me again, however I'm going 45 with five cars stacked up behind me and give him a big wave. I know he wanted to flip me off

Go to the CHP station where the Officer works. Talk to a Sgt. or Lt. and tell him you think the Officer was being discriminatory toward you
because you were on a bike. Tell him everything accuratley. If your ticket has not been sent to the court, the the Supervisor can pull the ticket. It happened to me.
