Tonight I received my first speeding ticket. I got my license abt 6 months ago with a clean record. I always try my best to obey traffic laws. Since I was the designated driver, I did not touch alcohol at all. Around 3am, while I was accelerating and getting on the highway I was pulled over. Before I was pulled over, I saw the parked police car and I looked at my meter; it was reading around 43-45. The officer told me I was speeding 53 on 30mph zone. I said sorry and I told him I wasn't aware of it. Since, I put my purse in the back seat, i asked if I could reach and get my purse. The officer looked at me and said no, he told my friend who had few drinks to get my purse. The officer asked me if I drank, and I said no. Without further talking and pay no attention to my PBA card. He wrote me a ticket. I feel like I was not treated with respect. Maybe I misunderstand him, but why can I get my own purse? Do I look like I carried a weapon? I don't think the ticket is fair to me.
