    Default Mistakes on a Speeding Ticket by Officer, Do I Have a Chance in Court

    My question involves a traffic ticket from the state of: New Jersey

    I received a ticket for speeding in a 65mph zone and was "clocked" at 90mph. I was honestly traveling at 75mph in a 65mph zone. i was pulled over along with another car. We both received tickets for speeding. The officer approached my window, and I rolled down my windows and put both hands on the steering wheel as I waited for the officer. The officer asked "Do you know why i am pulling you over?" i responded "NO". He told me "i am pulling you over because i clocked you doing 80mph in a 65mph zone". He then asked right after that can i have your license and registration please? I said sure, but can i also get a print out or proof that you clocked me doing 80mph in a 65mph zone? he responded and said no you can not because i can not retrieve that information and give it to you, and he then walked away not even allowing me to ask for the serial number. He then came back and said have a nice day and don't let me catch you speeding again and he handed me a summons. And yet again he walked away and didn't even let me ask any further questions. I didn't thoroughly check the summons on the spot but when i got home i realized that there were several errors on the summons. First, the diver license state is AB (I have no idea where or what that means. google did not help me), my license is from New York. Second, the officer put a middle name on the summons when on my license it does not state a middle name because i do not have one. Third, the summons said i was caught doing 90mph in a 65mph zone. And lastly, the license plate is completely wrong except for the first letter. For example, my license plate number is xxx-xxxx, the officer put x12-3456.

    I believe he confused me for another car. Do I have any chance to fight this case or have it dismissed? And also what made me really confused was, the officer told me i was doing 80mph in a 65mph zone, why did he come back with the summons stating 90mph in a 65mph zone? I accept i am wrong for doing 75mph but I was no where close to 90mph

    Edit: Also, the summons does not say how my speed was determined. But the officer said he "clocked" me doing 80 not 90.
