www.Highway58SpeedTrap.com Shocking video of the notorious Lacrosse, Virginia speed trap just off interstate I-85. My out of state tags have been pointed out to me as a probable reason I was unjustly pulled over, on a cops ‘word’ that he had ‘paced’ me doing 64 miles per hour in a 50 mph zone, all within a 1 mile stretch, where he began the event, over 1/4 mile behind me. Watch this video of highway 58 in Lacrosse, Virginia, where the officer obviously could NOT have ‘paced’ me just based on the distance alone, much less the very damning video on the home page of our site, where his radar (or lidar) gun actually dispoves his ‘theory’ that my cruise control was ‘acting’ up. What a crock of BS this traffic stop was, on highway 58 in Lacrosse, Virginia. How many other motorists (with out of state tags, that probably make the chance of them driving back to fight this BS in court slimmer, statistically) have been pulled over for speeding based on a cops ‘word’ ? I will bet, monetarily, that number will prove to be HUGE revenue for this speed trap community of Lacrosse, Virginia. This abuse of police traffic stops is rampant from what I hear on highway 58, and Lacrosse Virginia is notorious for this type of motorist treatment, based on folks I’ve spoken to. The fact any police officer can claim this ‘pacing’ a motorist, while their speed ‘gun’ sits on the seat next to them, so that the court visit becomes your word against theirs, is so far out of my ability to comprehend the …
@HighWay58speedTrap Dog. It’s obvious that your cruise control’s “50mph” is wrong. Your car, while you were driving it, exceeded the speed limit. I’m not really sure how that doesn’t count as speeding. It doesn’t help you’re being a huge bitch about probably a $100 fine. What did the judge say in court?
u must live in a different country than me.
when i’m accused of something i did not do, i don’t just agree and go quietly into the night…
court is not until 22 mar, 2010.
i’m sure the judge, mayor and cops in this town have all been a mile or two over the speed limit today.
you, too.
pay a fine and agree to this nonsense?
wrong answer…
So getting a reading on radar higher than the posted speed limit, twice is not your fault? I think I’m missing something here. Let me give you a little spoiler alert for your court date: The judge is not going to believe that you “had the cruise control set for 50.” He is going to side with the physical evidence of your vehicle traveling on radar faster than the posted speed limit, while you were operating it. I cannot believe there are people as stupid as you are still kicking today.
You don’t use km/h speed limits?
@Sublimize23
I’d say something about you, but Sarah Palin wouldn’t like it. Why don’t you haul your “smart” butt to a country more your style–say North Korea?
emporia,va is the worst on the us 58 highway, before interstate 95 juction, write the virginia polictians, that’s what im doing to hopefully rid the speedtraps there too.
What a crybaby. Go the speed limit and you won’t get a ticket
let’s see.
got a video proving me right.
got a nasa analysis does the same.
got the commonwealth attorney to drop all charges BEFORE court in march.
me. win.
you. apparently a sheep.
just sayin’
all charges DROPPED by the commonwealth attorney BEFORE court in March.
She came and did it in person.
the world doesn’t need more sheep, but if that’s what your comfortable being, graze on, sublimize dude.
graze on.
just sayin’
what brand of gum are you chewing
Unthinking respect for authority is the greatest enemy of truth.
@HighWay58speedTrap i so happy that the charges was drop don’t listen to some of these ppl they think they know everything but if it was them they be sing the blues they just don’t have the smarts to think to do what u did and know there rights so keep doing what your doing i wish i had new that i could video tap when times i got pulled over
@HighWay58speedTrap don’t wait your time on sublimize23 he don’t know what the hell he is talking about he just a kid judge by they way he talks i am sure he has gotten pulled over a cried life a baby him self so forget him you done the right thing if you had not you would had paid the fine and all charges was dropped cause you was in the right
I think this is brilliant, great job man. I’m happy to hear the charges were dropped, and even they hadn’t prior to the court date, the fact that you were going 2 over the limit and recorded all of that, they easily would have dropped the charges either way. Props!
Highway58SpeedTrap Man, Disregard the braindead, mindcontrolled, sheeple that are criticizing you for standing up for your rights. They resent that you believe in freedom.
This Sublimize23 has to be a cop. This guy just oozes prickness like most cops do. I bet he’s even one of those short dumpy cops with the cheesy copstash and thinks he’s cool cause he can pull women over and flirt with them. I’m glad you beat this ticket.
@c061997 You’re such a mindless twat. Shut the fuck up.
@Sublimize23 Go fall in a hydroelectric plant intake
@HighWay58speedTrap Hes just some neocon asshole with no perspective who probably speeds anyway.
@HighWay58speedTrap Hes another ‘conservative’ idiot who suscribes to this ‘follow the law and you wont have trouble’ bullcrap. First, thats not entirely true. Second, these guys never stop to think that the law might be unfair? Third theyre just parroting “its the law its the law its the law’ without thinking about the situation, they’d probably be speeding too. I hate these assholes who live in bubbles, theyre the reason our govt is allowed to step on our rights like this and many other ways.
The problem is not just with this though, though this may be a glaring example. The whole system is bullshit honestly.
get a faster car, a radar detector, and a laser jammer and you’re all set.
a police tracker is optional..
I’m glad you beat it.. but honestly you’re very lucky you had a “nice” (and dumb) cop that pulled you over..I’ve been through a few states if they saw you filming like that and you questioned them the same way.. they would have pulled you through the window and kicked the shit out of you and broke your camera
I agree, this was a shocking display of police abuse.
