[quote=Anonymous]Sorry this happened to you OP.  It is DEFINITELY a racket - it is how a lot of those small towns make their budgets!  Apparently there was a lot of outrage directed at the practice in the past couple of years, and cops now have discretion to just give you a speeding ticket if you are under 85 (so no longer mandatory reckless over 80).  I know this for a fact, b/c I lucked out and the cop gave me a speeding ticket in the same circumstances (all the while explaining his discretion).  It was expensive, but JUST speeding.  Unfortunately, looks like you got a jerk for a cop.  From all the internet "research" I did, it really does seem like the best course is to hold your nose, pull out your wallet, and pay a local lawyer to represent you.  Very likely outcome is speeding (especially since cop could have done that in the first place).  Jason Wyrth had to do some jail time b/c I think he was in the high 90s (plus sped away from the cop) . . .apparently anything in the 90s and the judges will make you do jail time.

GOOD LUCK![/quote]
