I95 Northbound MM 46 to 49 on Bridge

Darien, GeorgiaJun 15, 20161 Comments

Time: ~ Approximately 10:15pm to 11:00Pm on a Monday. (
Conditions were Dark. Clear Weather ~70 degrees..
Location; Officer was parked on the Bridge. Far right shoulder (Break Down lane)
No lights/No obvious reflectors.

I was traveling in the far right, slowest lane with cruise set at 74mph. I noted the setting of the cruise as there were two officers in the south bound lanes with cars stopped. (Thinking speed trap or possible traffic issues ahead.)
There was a semi tractor/trailer approaching from my rear in the left adjacent lane, over taking me when I saw the police car with the driver’s door wide open and the officer scrambling to get into the car.
Once I saw the car and the car door, I moved left, the lane was occupied by the truck/trailer. The event was unexpected and a bit startling.
I reset the cruise and maintained traveling in the far right driving lane at 74mph.
The patrol vehicle lights were approaching from behind. As he approached, I looked for a safe spot, wide enough to get off the driving lane, placed my turn signal for a right turn maneuver, and pulled off to allow the officer to pass. The officer pulled in behind me.
he approached the right side of my car and tapped on the window. I rolled down the window. Officer stated he clocked me going 85 in a 70. He did not ask me “why I was being stopped”. He did not allow me to speak. I responded that my cruise was set on 74mph. I stated that his unlit vehicle startled me. I told him that he was not visible. He responded “I don’t have to be visible”. I asked to see the method that showed I was traveling 85 mph. he stated he did not have to show me the Laser gun. He stated “I had the laser aimed at the roof of your vehicle”. “it only sees one vehicle at a time”.

I told him that he was in error, He stated that my cruise was in error.

Georgia has a classification of SUPERSPEEDER for speeds 85 mph and greater. This adds $200.00 to all other fines.

The City Police officer was young. He was arrogant. He appeared to be on a mission.
I have no points or accidents on my current driving record. I drive approximately 40,000 miles per year as we have a home in Florida and WV. I worked in numerous different states. I drive my personal vehicle as well as many rental cars.

Comments:
There are a lot of complaints on McIntosh County, Darien, GA. The first thing you need to do is get your attorney to send Open Records Request to the McIntosh County Sheriff's Office and demand copies of the Facebook messages between recently terminated deputy Brandt Gaither and Former deputy and former Darien Police Officer Jeremy Owens. THE MESSAGES ARE IN THE PERSONNEL FILE OF BRANDT GAITHER. The messages are in reference to them betting on how many "niggers" they could stop on the interstate. And, other demeaning messages and jokes about African Americans, including "How do you tell if a black woman is pregnant? Shove a piece of chicken up her vagina!" Attorneys have gotten these messages. Attorney Jason Clark-Brunswick, GA and Luke Moses-Hinesville, GA.
