Q: Speeding ticket timing incorrect, gym and school alibis. What are my options?
I received a speeding ticket stating that I was driving at 76 mph in a 45 mph zone. However, the timing on the ticket seems incorrect. The ticket was issued at 10:15 am, but I was at my gym at that time. I have a login printout from the gym showing I logged in at 10:16 am. Furthermore, the officer's radar reading states 12:45 pm, which was when I was at my daughter's school, confirmed by a check-out ticket from the school. The officer's car was parked after a traffic light where I had stopped, and my car generally doesn't pick up speed quickly enough to reach 76 mph without jerking. The officer only provided the speeding ticket with no additional documentation.
