Before even entering Golden Meadow

Golden Meadow, LouisianaApr 25, 20170 Comments

Me and my cousins were on a trip New Orleans and thought it would be fun to drive to the bottom of Louisiana. It was a good time until we came into the town of Golden Meadow. Correcting the outskirts of Golden Meadow. We were pulled over before we even entered town and were asked for license, registration, and the title to the vehicle. Yes the TITLE to me vehicle. Being from Minnesota I thought maybe its a LA thing..its not. I figured he pulled me over for having out of state plats as many cops do that everywhere. When I asked why he pulled me over he said I was going 58 in a 50 and driving in the left lane with out passing or yielding to an emergency/ law enforcement vehicle. He then gave me a ticket with no dollar amount on it and when I asked how much it was he said I could go look it up online. He was very rude and didn’t care that I was from out of state and clearly not from the area. In my mind he saw out of state plates and saw an easy target. I got a ticket for $350 with a $17.50 service fee, the reasons being “speeding 58 in a 50” and “driving in left lane.” Next time I’ll research traffic laws before I go on vacation.
