cop troubles, help Options

ok well i just got back from florida for my vacation.

on the way there my friend in the back asked me to throw away a can, i was in the passenger seat. i thew it away (outside). bout 1/2 an hour later we see an undercover cop on the side...it came out after us. then we see an SUV k9 unit and 2 other cop cars. they pulled us over, told the driver to get out of the car. then a cop came up to me asked me where the alcohol was....i said there was none. then he asked me y i threw a can out the window. i said i didnt, he said he has a witness that called out tags in about littering... i told them i didnt do it. so basically he gave the driver a ticket for 85 in 70 and me a littering ticket. but the son of a biatch cop said i cant prepay and i gotta go back to georgia on Aug 17. im gonna be outta the country then.

so im gonna call them and ask if i can prepay, cause im not goin back down to gorgia.

any suggestions?

First, who calls in littering, jeez some ppl are anal.

Second, I suggest never lying to a cop. He obviously knew you threw the can out. And this was on the highway? If your throwing stuff out the window on the highway you deserve a smack. And I dont see why you'd have to go down to court for littering, what does the instructions say on the ticket.

you would win if you took it to court. they have no witness to testify that you in fact did throw it out. the cop cant for sure. its two citizens words against each other. unless they picked up the pop can as evidence and want to spend the money fingerprinting it, etc.

they have to find that you beyond a reasonable doubt that you threw that pop can out.

it is easy to beat the cops tickets if you know something about the law and have the patience to take it to court.

That's what I was thinking. It's not right to litter, but I don't think the ticket they gave you will stand up in court.
