Message: [QUOTE="giddyup, post: 4683426, member: 11505"] Plead not guilty. Go to court and try and plead I it down. You can’t admit to speeding. Make sure you can recite exactly where the cop was in relation to you and also how dense and proximate other cars were, and which cars/trucks that were around you and passed you. Look at your ticket and see if there are any notes on it regarding conditions, errors or omissions. It should also state the method of speed determination. If it doesn’t you tell the DA. It’s not recorded and you can determine if Ws don’t by pacing, VASCAR, aviation or radar. If the DA asks whether you were speeding, you can say you have no idea what speed you were traveling (unless you knew at moment when the cop clocked you - which you wouldn’t know) and you were going no faster than prevailing traffic. Be polite, not argumentative. Be perplexed as to why you were singled out given you made no lane changes or passed anybody. Most radars have an angle of aperture that limits resolution to about 40 feet wide so if there we cars next to you it could be the wrong vehicle. My recommendation is contact the DA’s office and seek to talk to the prosecutor. They usually are decent. If he/she/it is a total jackass, tell him you want all the cop’s contemporaneous notes and the manual for the device he is used, and the last calibration record guy. Follow up with a letter demand for the information. If it isn’t delivered in time, you show up for the court date and tell the judge your story, how you were deprived of evidence or there is none, and roll the dice. [/QUOTE]
