Got speed ticket on I-10 for doing 70MPH~!@#$%^
I was driving 70 mph westbound on I-10 at Friday 8:00 pm, got pulled over in Ktown area for speeding. I told the cop I just simply followed the traffic, some BMW are even faster than me. After he had all my documents, He asked me how fast I drive. I told him 70, then he walked away without any words, WTF. OK, few minutes later, he gave me the ticket, I notice he wrote 74. I asked him if there is any evidences such like speed gun used, I need to see it, since the number is so accurate. He stuck for 2 second and said, "NO, I DON'T HAVE, I DIDN'T USE LASER GUN OR SPEED GUN , BUT I NEED YOU SIGN IN THE BOX" After i signed it, he passed the ticket to me and left without any words, what the hell!? This A-hole seems in a rush to give me ticket, what is going on here in Los Angeles?

I'd contest the ticket.
You don't have to be at a certain limit before you can get a dui. Be glad you weren't in any type of accident, your fault or not, because you could have been screwed.

You can try to contest the ticket if he did not have an accurate way to clock your speed. That does suck though. I remember when I lived in SoCal and you could easily get away with following the flow of traffic around 80+. Then again, I'm not sure how much they enforce the highways nowadays.
Good luck.
Good luck.

good luck op,
i got pulled over for speeding once and i was also going with traffic, but i got lucky and the cop just gave me a fix-it ticked for my black tail lights, no front liscense plate, and tint
but going with the flow of traffic doesn't work anymore, if the cop wants to write it he will, try to contest it and see what happens, but good luck once again.

yeah i hate that crap, just cause you drive a sports car, they automatically catch you and say you're speeding -_- i say you contest that in court and if he didn't showed you no proof of the speed gun saying you went 74 and then was a *** about it, but the hard part is if you have no witnesses such as a passenger its hard fighting by yourself against police cause sometimes the court automatically sways against you
