State Highway 17A near Depot Avenue
I was driving on Hwy 17A approaching the town of Cottageville. This is a two lane road and I was stuck behind a slow moving wood chip truck, as I got closer to Cottageville a sadan type vehicle and a utility type truck passed me and pulled between me and the wood chip truck. As we came into Cottageville the road widen to four lanes, so I decided to pass all of the vehicles. Once I pulled into the right lane and accellerated pass them the sadan pulled out, turned on a dash mounted light and pulled me over. When I pulled over and stopped, so did the sadan and the utility truck (I think they were working together). I explained that I was trying to get in front of the truck so as not to be behind him again when the highway went back to two lanes. He proceeded to write me a ticket for speeding as well as "Careless Driving", a total of $475.00 fine.
