I got pulled over today on the way to work, and was issued a ticket for running a red light. The light was yellow when i went through it (I swear on everything that is holy it was). A coworker who was 2 cars behind me even saw that the light was still yellow, and even took a pic of me pulled over with the officer next to my car w/his cell phone.
I didnt argue with the police officer on the side of the road, because I understand he's just doing his job and I didnt want to break his balls, but I do want to fight this in court because I really didnt run a red light.
I havent had a ticket in over 5 years, and its been a while since Ive been to court. I am of course going to go and plead not guilty. Anyone have any advice on the best way to go about it? Should I bring my friend, who was right behind me and can verify that the light wasnt red as I passed through? Should I wear a tie?
