Got pulled over last week on my way to work, wondering if my story is worth bringing to court. Let me start off by saying that I was caught doing 83 in a 50 or 55 in Barnstead NH on Rt. 28. This is the first offense that I have been charged with on the bike, I've been riding for 4 years now. What happend was I was the 3rd one in line following a volvo s70 with a caravan leading the convoy. The van had been doing baerly the speed limit at best for a while when the passing zone by, I belive its, JJ Goodwins came up. The Volvo was thinking the same thing I was and pulled out to pass, and I followed. The volvo pulled back into traffic leaving no room for me. This is where fight or flight comes into play and I wasnt going to be winnng against any on comming traffic. I saw the officer when I was still in the left lane, you can fill in the rest from there.
On a side note I pulled over as soon as I saw the blues, I find they go eaiser on you when you do this. This time the Volvo follwoed me, the cop cut him loose . Anybody think I have any sort of chance winning this one or at least getting a lesser charge. Open to suggestions or advice.
