Got doubled up late last March near 45/10 so be on the lookout around there as well. Two cops on foot pulling folks over left and right and I got an unsafe lane change as well impeding traffic which was bull***** No one behind me in my lane and i never remotely stopped moving while trying to merge into an exit lane backed way up.
Literally got this exact ticket on the way to hospital with pregnant wife with first kid. Wife was crying in the front seat, cop asked "is she alright?" I replied "we're on the way to the hospital". His response was two tickets.
I lawyered up out of spite and had all kinds of documents regarding daily average speed at that intersection, documentation of our hospital stay, etc.
I couldn't wait for my day in court to make this cop look like a huge piece of poo. I showed up and the lawyer was impressed with my preparation, and concurrently laughed at me.
Pig didn't show. Dismissed.
TLDR version. POS cop gave me two tickets in rush hour traffic on way to hospital with wife having contractions. Cop didn't show for court, case dismissed.
I share the same sentiment as NWA for the most part.
