I was pulled over in Maryland, pg to be exact.
The first mistake is the actual violation.The officer wrote "fail to stop at steady circular red signal" (21-202 h 1)
The actual violation is "fail to stop at red signal before right turn" (21-202 i 1)
The second mistake is the "location of offense". He wrote down the intersection where he pulled me over(which is about 2 blocks/half a mile from where the offense actually occurred).
The third mistake is my driver's license number is off by 1 number. (wrote a 6 instead of a 5).
Everything else seems to be accurate.
I was going to use the "location of offense" as my defense and take in pictures of the intersection since there is only a stop sign there. Can't be guilty of "failure to stop at a circular red signal" if there is no traffic signal there, right?
Is there any other way I could fight this?
What are my chances of getting probation before judgment if I lose my case(this is my first ticket)? If the officer is there, would taking a plea deal be better than trying my case?
