Ok, my wife was driving down Alandari Ln this afternoon. She came to a stop at English Ivy Cir. Next thing she knows there is a motorcycle deputy pulling her over. The deputy told her that she stopped at the stop sign but it wasn't long enough. He didn't state it was a rolling stop. It was just not long enough. How long is not long enough? I believe that if you break the law you should pay the penalty but when the deputy told my wife that she did stop then where is the violation? At that point it makes it clear to me that it is quota for the month and entrapment and not enforcement. Should we go to court? We know that the fine is $166 and 3 points. If we lose or win what are the court costs? Anyone have any recommendations?
Thanks.
