First and foremost, learn how to type correctly. Just a little FYI, 'c' is not a replacement for 'see'.

You should of never signed it. Yet VA is crazy on some laws like that.
If he didn't sign it, he would have gone to jail right then and there.

This is correct.
Did your friend have a lawyer? Hopefully your lawyer will play 20 questions with the cop to find the out the fact that you were nowhere near your friend going 102 and the judge will see it. But I wouldn't count on it. Good luck. And if you get found guilty, keep appealing it. The money you'll spend in lawyer fees up front will be nothing compared to the fines you'll rack up and increased insurance premiums for the next five years. Take it all the way to a jury if you have to.
Actually, when I was 16 I got a ticket for 'racing' where you turn right on Cedar Road from Battlefield. It's got one lane, we weren't speeding, not following each other too closely and honest to god I was just driving home. But the cop wrote us both up and we went to court and it got dropped and wasted everyone's time. So there is some hope. My lawyer was hot and had huge boobs, so that might have played a part in the verdict.
