Hey /o/, I'm in a little bit of a pickle here.
I got a $20 dollar ticket for following too closely/tailgating.
Should I fight this ticket or just pay it? I didn't cause an accident or anything but the cop did see me and probably had it on his camera too.
Will my insurance go up and does that make it worth trying to fight?

Just pay it you fucking mong
Your insurance will go up for 3 years. Fight it.
You can pay $20 and the insurance hike or you can spend twice as much fighting it and then lose because you were following too close. There's nothing else to it, you fucked up and that's all there is, whether or not it caused an accident is irrelevant. Unless you had a legit reason such as evading a mass shooter or precariously made roadways that forced you into that situation it was entirely your fault and you have no case.

>Being """""that guy"""""
You're lucky you weren't tailgating me, you little twerp. I'd slice you in half right fucking quick if you tried that shit on me, loser.
Fight it with a traffic lawyer.
Initial cost will be drastically more, but it'll save you in the long run.

People tailgating aren't the problem. It's the guy in front of the tailgater that gets nervous over nothing. Chances are the guy tailgating isn't going to react quickly enough in the time of an actual emergency stop anyways given time.

Car in front of me was going 30mph up the entrance ramp.
By the time we got to the highway all the other cars were whipping by us at 70 and we were still going 30.
I just wanted them to speed up so we could merge safely.
now...
about this pickle...

20 dollars? Court costs are at least five times that much.
You want my opinion? Fight it. Don't let the system take advantage if you walk in there and fight the good fight. You'll win for sure. No one would ever think you are retarded.

Tailgating is stupid in any circumstance and I'm glad you got a ticket for it.
Call the guy in front a faggot and wait the extra 15 seconds it would take out of your commute to find a good time to merge onto the highway instead of exacerbating the odds of a crash with an already nervous driver
Why would you fight a $20 ticket? How poor are you? in denmark tailgating would cost you $300
Bumfuck piece of shit

I'm sorry he didn't brake check you you piece of shit.
