And that's why I have a dash cam with audio if I get pulled over. I don't speed and drive like an idiot but having been through a similar story and not having any proof the cop had the wrong car makes me distrust cops in general. And with all the video the last few years showing cops doing things they shouldn't makes me think everyone should have one.
