I was in the same area as the OP and got a ticket from a OHP storm trooper for 'inattentive driving'. I took it to court and proved I wasn't being inattentive.. that the vehicle in front of me had a object sticking sell over 8 feet behind his trailer and that it wasnt marked.. nor were the break lights on the trailer operative.. so I couldn't see it had stopped in the road. The trooper even admitted on the stand that he never saw the breaklight operative on the trailer. Judge just changed the ticket in court to 'following to closely' and fined me anyway. The Shawnee area court is simply a cash making machine for the county. If I remember right, the judge's family had been murdered when he was young.. so now he gets back at the killer by imposing harsh sentences on everyone he can. If he can't execute them... he fines them.

I don't know a thing about this judge.

What I do know is that it takes a pretty big a-hole to start talking about his murdered family on the internet.

You laugh Michael, this was actually relayed to me during a traffic stop for a brake light being out. I was on my way to a 3 gun match and had like 2 handguns, 2 rifles, and a shotgun plus a couple hundred rounds for each with me. I believe he was slightly creeped out and told me to make sure the ammo was not stored along with the guns or I risked the mythical "federal felony."
