Follow too closely is a little harder to prove than speeding, where no collision occurred, FYI. Thank you for the responses. Any tips on fighting this kind of thing? Does stressing since I have never been in an accident (and therefore never rear-ended anyone) despite driving daily almost every day ...

I am going to fight this, as I don't believe I was doing anything wrong when I was moving into the right lane, and think I just got targeted as nothing even happened. I will be applying for the disclosure of the notes, and will formulate my defense accordingly. I d...

There were two cops in the cruiser. One gave me the 10km/h over ticket, the other issued the following too closely after I moved into the right lane to get out of congestion. I take it that they still must both be there despite issuing me one ticket each? Should I put these both to trial together?

Following Too Closely (2 in Cruiser)

I was on a highway going to work; it was late afternoon. It is an 80km/h highway. I was in a group of cars, then there was a tractor on the right side, so I merged into the left, then when I got the chance, went back into the right and away from the cars as I don't like being that close, I forget if...
