So I come home to check the mail and guess what I see? A Sheriff letter mailed to me, my heart was racing while I was holding it and I quickly went inside and opened it up.
I had not one, but two tickets. One for not wearing a helmet, and the other was going 31 in a 25 mph zone. Now I admit I go a little bit fast in the neighborhood or where 25 mph speed limits are posted but I certainly always wear a helmet. Next, the infraction was listed at a place called lake something. I've never been to that place nor do I know where that is at. Ticket was issued Thursday, June 17, 2010 and I swear I was at home sleeping before work at 4.
Also, the vehicle information was incorrect. Bike year is a 1996, Blue Suzuki. Even the tag is wrong. The only vehicles I have under my name ever is:
2002 White/Red/Black Kawasaki Ninja EX500
2009 Blue Yamaha FZ6-R
And was but not anymore
2008 Green Kawasaki Ninja 250R
In court if they played the dash cam I'm certain it won't be me. Not to mention they mailed me the ticket, if I were to get pulled over I would have gotten the ticket in person. It is weird that the police got my name on the bike, when I only had those vehicles I listed above registered when they didn't pull them over because I was mailed the ticket.
Isn't this an error on the cops part as if the person they pulled over only gave them the name then it was his fault for not matching the faces?
Keep in mind my FZ6-R is the only vehicle that I ride.
I strongly believe I should fight this ticket, anyone else agree?
