Today i was rolling up 33 from columbus to 75 heading to lima,oh. route 33 was plasterd with dot and other law enforcment. as i ran in the slow lane, 2 cars in front of me, a few behind and one on my left, i see a bear roll up behind it, and then then roll in behind me. long stort short, he pulls me over.......bam! 71 in a 55.....just like that.
now we have all heard guys come on here say cry and moan about how they were not speeding. i'm not gonna cry and moan, but i was NOT doin 71 in a 55 but theres no way for me to prove that. i run that streach EVERYDAY, if he would have said i got ya at 61 or 62 in a 55, i would have paid it,said ok and went on with bussiness, but i #### sure wasnt at 71. thats ridiculous. so, now i'm gonna fight it, prolly wont win no way, but when an officer of the law just flat out lies i cant just sit on it.
I'm curious if anyone has some advice on who they would hire on this. i called around to a few local attorneys in marysville,oh and just called the interstate trucker people, all are right around 400 to 500 dollar area to do it.thats fine.but i have never used any of the ooida or interstate attorneys or anyother big outfit. just looking for some advice. some say,"just pay it it will be cheaper"....yeah true in the short go,cost of fighting this is not an issue here though. i dont really care what it cost,with in reason, just a chance to fight it i guess is what i'm looking for. 2 reasons i'm not gonna just pay it and go. insurance rates, and the cop is a liar....i haul hazmat and i like my cdl clean........rant over.......sorry y'all.
advice on who to use to fight a ticket.....
