Probably saw your driving record and gave you a ticket based off of that.

I don't write that many tickets, but when I do I tend to look at attitude more than anything. Don't call me dude or man and we won't have any problems...

Since when can you write a ticket for hitting the brakes hard?

he asked me what my record was like, and i was honest... i just got a ticket for uneccessary acceleration... but tickets shouldnt be based off your record, i know some are though.. just doenst seem right, how would you ever turn yourself around if you just kept getting tickets because you already had one...

I have definitly changed my driving since i got that ticket in may... i dont want to be looked as a traffic criminal because of it, when im trying to be a better driver

I've seriously never heard of "Unnecessary Acceleration", I even looked it up in my F.S. Statute book, might just be specific to your state. Either way, it sounds like a ******** ticket and you probably did something to **** the cop off.

To answer your question about how you would turn yourself around if you already got one, just obey the law and you wont have a problem.

If I pull you over and you have six speeding tickets on your record, why wouldn't I write you another one? You obviously haven't learned your lesson...

The term he used was "imprudent" speed aka unecessary acceleration... http://www.projectcamaro.com/forum/...read.php?t=3392 that was back then... In court he was convinced we were racing, I was just trying to get around the guy actually, but doesnt matter, I lost in court, and I need to pay the ticket.. that the only ticket ive ever got, and I will not race anymore.

well, why didnt he target the other cars inhead of me.. there were 5 or 6 cars inhead of me, all slammed on their brakes, and i didnt slam on mine, i just slowed down... he obviously was picking me out of everyone, which is not fair, he should be getting on the first person in the line, we were all going the same speed... it just sounds like discrimination because of the car i drive and thats ********

Nope, cops can pull over whoever they want. You can try going the "age discrimination" route in court, but you'll lose.
