Q: How do I fine out who and what car they were driving when they got a speeding with my license they was goin 90 in a 40..
And why didn't the person that stold my license go to jail that night goin 90 in a 40..how can I get this fixed
A:
You can go the the court and request a copy of the citation from the clerk's office. That will have the made, model and license plate of the car that was stopped. Going 90 in 40 could end up getting someone arrested-but it's not required, and that decision would likely be up the officer and/or the policy of the department the officer works for.
Getting it fixed is more complicated. If you have documentation that you reported the license stolen-that would help. Any evidence that proves you were somewhere else when the traffic stop occurred might be beneficial. The officer may have body-worn camera, and if so-who the driver actually was that was stopped should be obvious from the footage.
Good luck!
