So I got pulled over after the long weekend, me and my buddy in another car following me. So the cop told me he should of impounded my car and I should have a 10,000 fine but he said he called his boss and he made it a 120km/h in a 80 km/h. He told me if I take it to court it would be going back up to the 50 over ticket!!!

What should I do both me and my buddy got the same ticket it was a weird pull over because he got us both to pull over. Shocked


Also the ticket reads exactly as following:


at:10 highway township of Southgate

did commit the offence of: speeding 120km/h in a posted 80 km/h zone

contrary to: highway traffic act 128

The officer is correct that, in most jurisdictions, if you fight a reduced speeding ticket the crown can ask the JP to amend the ticket back to the original amount.
