Well, it was weird. I didn't contest it but it was overturned I guess? This is a stereotypical small, southern town cop story.

I left a school board meeting I was presenting at and as I left I was stopped by a city cop. I had just turned off of the street the school was on and got on the highway. The cop told me I was going 60....up a hill in a car that I doubt would have trouble reaching sixty going downhill.

Another couple pulled over to watch that was at the meeting because they didn't understand what was happening and I was later told they didn't trust that cop.

I didn't argue with the cop. Just did my "Yes sir, no sir" thing. Later paid my fine.

I got a call from city hall to come down there after work. The mayor had my fine returned to me. Apparently that cop was not supposed to have been patrolling that night, he was on some kind of probation for misbehavior about stopping young women to just talk to him. He didn't keep his job much longer.
