Discrated Driving ticket.
Okay so i have an issue that happened to me yesterday on the way home from work.
Was waiting at a red light and a police officer was coming in the opposite direction
As he passed me we both looked at each other and i watched as he turned around. At this time i knew i was going to get pulled over but had no idea why.
So the light goes green and sure enough i get pulled over shortly after. He comes up to my window and asked if i knew why i was getting pulled over and i said no, And he replied that i was talking on my cell phone. (which i honestly wasnt, my phone was in my pocket.) I tried to tell him that i was not on my phone and that he could even g through my phone if he wanted.
This is when he started to get aggressive, Calling me a little prick and to stop running my mouth to a police officer. (I wasnt even being rude, i was being polite)
So he comes back after taking over 30 minutes to write a single ticket, and proceeds to tell me that he saw me CLEAR AS DAY on a black and silver phone. I then took my white phone out and showed him that it sure enough was not black and silver and he just told me to stop lieng though my teeth to him.
I walked away with a distracted driving ticket for 172.00 for not doing anything. I was wondering if this would be worth it to take to court or would it be pointless because it is his word against my word.??
I plan on filing a complaint against the police officer but i was wodering if anyone could shed any insight on my situation here.
Thanks Beyond!
