let me start off by telling you about myself, im 17. a senior in highschool. I get pretty good grades and work about 30 hours a week. Im very responsibe. Except i made a bad choice. I was with a friend one about a week ago and we were smoking while i drove (stupid i know) and i dropped her off. As soon as i dropped her off i was at a light waiting for the green arrow. (its midnight by the way) Its one of those lights that the green arrow takes for ever, as im sitting and waiting im expecting the green arrow soon. Out of the corner of my eye i see a green light so i start going. I notice its not my arrow but the straigt lanes. I rushed and went for it as i felt that i was too far out and it was a cop that was the only car coming forward.
I get pulled over, the cop walks up to my car and says " What the **** was that!" and i explained politly my situation. He noticed something was up and asked if i smoked. I admitted it and he told me to hold on after getting my license and reg. He gives me a breathilizer and 3 tests while his backup searches my car. I took an ABC test, a touch your nose with your head back, and walk a straight line test. I know passed all tests and i didnt have any drugs. The officer issued me a citation for the turn and lets me drive home. I decided to fight the $109 ticked because of the three points that will possibly double insurance.
Do you think by me fighting it could i get rid of the points? i will bring my grades, explain how i will be in college next year and cantafford it. Also, i will admit my wrong do-ing and explain how i made a bad decision that i learnd from. Will the officer bring up me being high even though it had nothing to do with this case? he let me go so i know it wasnt a problem. Thoughts??
