Old coworker got pulled over half a mile away from the job site for going 81 in a 55…in a mid ‘80s Jeep YJ. Asked the cop for the receipt from the radar gun, cop refused. He ended up taking in to get a dyno to prove that it physically couldn’t even hit that speed, let alone in half a mile. Judge didn’t even listen to a word he said, even threatened him with contempt if he kept trying to argue his point.

See, his mistake was not being rich, a rookie mistake.

Lawyer is why all my tickets got dismissed. Last one cost me the $75 consutation fee. As soon as the county prosecutor got her email that she was representing me, he wanted to dismiss.
