Also my car is Black.....It's hard enough to judge a car's speed by just looking at it from a near by parking lot. But the fact it was very dark according to the officer, and my car is black, its difficult to judge a vehicle speed with those factors, even if your experience. correct? I think hes wrong....I think he knew it, resulting in lack of infomation on the ticket...

just pull a Dave Chappelle at court
"I do not what what the shizzle this bizzle is about, but i do know that its Bu- Sh"
but yes there is a "flow of traffic" rule, If I were you I would try to look it up or ask one of your cop friends about it.
Yes Dave I agree, I think he is hoping you just pay it.
BTW Good Luck

the flow of traffic is BS!!! try using that in court and say " i was going with the flow of traffic" the judge will laugh at you and say " if they were all going 100mph you would to or if the all jumped off a bridge you would too?" i seen someone in court try this. it was a Korean lady and the judge laid the hammer!!! thank god i was there for a non moving violations.

I e-mailed a friend from college who is a lawyer. I'll let you know what he says... I sent him a copy of the citation.
He did tell me that if you are charged with excessive speeding or racing (neither apply to you it seems) then you'd get referred to the Public Defenders Office. So this does look like a minor infraction, but of course it would still behoove you to clear it from your abstract.

I guess you can fight it if you want. As others stated...your word vs theirs. But "speed restrictions under certain conditions" means a posted speed doesn't matter. I think if the police officer deemed it unsafe, it's so. (not taking sides). But go for it buggo!!!

sucks man, seems like he picked you in the crowd... i had a cop folow me for a bit and give me a ticket for no plate.. he was a rookie, and i strongly feel the guy was picking on me... he makes a u-turn, follows me for quite while, waiting for me to do something stupid, then Finally pulls me over and gives me the ticket...
yea, i think you would simply give yourself away by telling the judge you were going the flow of traffic... were you not watching your own speed??

oh i understand what unpimped meant, i just agreed with ****... i didnt quote unpimped's post... i know he meant you shouldnt be speeding around others (even under the speed limit) when cops are around to avoid any additional attention.
