My question involves a speeding ticket from the State of: California.
I recently got a citation on i-680 for going at 78 with max speed as 65. The officer has mentioned 60 as the safe speed. Does this push my violation from 0-15 to 15-25mph.
He has cited only for 22349(a) not 22350.
He said he paced me for a mile. My only defense is that he was tailgating me - real close (3-4 feet) before he switched on his lights to stop me. I did switch on the blinkers to get out of the way a couple of seconds before he switched on his lights ... a mile at these speeds is not much in terms of time.
The county is not too far from where i live. Is TBD worth a try or only try to appear in court.
He has also mentioned a safe speed of 60 as "it was raining on and off" in that area.
Will the violation be 0-15 or 15-25 because he mentioned a safe speed. Only code cited for is 22349(a).
He also said traffic court maybe an option ... isn't that an option for sure?
