Englewood, Tennessee Speed Traps

Traveling south on 411, choose route for scenery, instead of 1-75. Stopped at the one traffic light in town, began to proceed and passed a police vehicle. The officer abruptly turned his head around and viewed the back of my car. Within minutes, he pulled me over and gave me a ticket for reckless driving (22 mph over the limit, poor visibility and wet conditions). I appeared in court to contest the ticket and provided a photograph of the conditions, after the officer said it was raining heavily and standing water…the picture showed visibility was in no way hampered and that the roads were only damp. The reckless driving was dropped but I was still charged with speeding, even though they had no proof. Another GA. man was in court the same day, same ticket, caught in same location, same direction, and he was found guilty too! I am presently appealing in McMinn County Court.

Stopped going 45 at 1:30 am. I was the only car on road for miles. 30 mph signs posted 3 times on southbound. 1st sign was way off road and bullet riddled, 2nd was hid by another sign, 3rd was turned at an angle which did not relate to highway 411.
