Yes I would have to lie to beat the ticket

Time to hire a team and shut up :]

@ jsherk - thank you

@OP - That's what I would have done too to avoid brake checking or getting rear ended by people. Once I saw the 50 km/h sign I would have slowed down or just stopped accelerating but look what happened. The police rather I brake check someone?

Also in my case you couldn't even see the 50 km/h sign at night, traffic was ...

If it was a 50 and you admit to going 60 then you will be charged as you will have testified against yourself, regardless if the 60 was just ahead.

When it's your word against the officers, guess who they are most likely to believe?

Yes I think this cop would have given me ticket for going 60 km/h too.. Probably had his eyes on the car from the ...

Happened near Laurier University in Waterloo Ontario around ~2 AM

Issue #1
From when I turned onto that road all the way up to the hidden bike cop there wasn't a single posted speed sign, at least one I could SEE (went back and saw it in the morning). I know you should default to 50 km/h when there's no signs but the flow of traffic on that road ...
