Re: trying to ask for additional disclosure what should i do

There's several sites regarding Lidar not just wiki


Lidar, to my knowledge, does not take a picture of the license/target although that could be theoretically possible and maybe there are some models that do that. Lidar measures the distance from the lidar unit to the target only. It can NOT measure the distance between two vehicles. Wiki is ...

Re: trying to ask for additional disclosure what should i do

Advantages of lidar over radar

Radar has wide signal beam divergence, so that an individual vehicle cannot be targeted, requiring significant operator skill, training and certification in order to visually estimate speed so as to locate an offender in a traffic stream, and offenders may use the defence that some other vehicle was offending. Radar ...

Re: Incorrect Set Fine Payable - Force Fatal Error

I'm really not getting the point, and I'm sure its me ;)

but any way, your speedo is accurate,
if you have a device that calculates average speed, great (I have that as well), but that means nothing, because it's an average speed.

as a final example,
hi way is 100kmh, you set cruise at 100, your speed could vary by 10% 20% ?

Re: Incorrect Set Fine Payable - Force Fatal Error

The other thing I've read on here is the TC's are trained to estimate drivers speed by observation, they have a deviance of 5kmphs apparently, I think also a cop can site you for speeding by observing your rate of speed, pacing and of course radar, I believe he can say he observed you doing approx 110 and the crown would take his word over yours ...

Re: Incorrect Set Fine Payable - Force Fatal Error

I used to work in the industry, .

Older speedo's I totally agree with you can be out, hence why UK law generally gave you 10% +/- 3mph.
Modern car's that is simply not the case and is really a Hail Mary defense. 99% of the speedos are balls on accurate.

The ONLY time they are out is IF you decide to change the rims and wheel size, that is the ...

Re: Incorrect Set Fine Payable - Force Fatal Error

it is very rare if not impossible for a car speedo to be out, ONLY if non standard wheel/tire's have been fitted.

All car speedo's are now digital (even if you have a needle), yes there is a tolerance, but that would only effect .5% of speedo's

If your needle is smack bang on the 100 you can bet your cotton socks your doing 100

I'm guessing, with a G2, your looking at a suspension right, due to your noviceness,
with a G, for that speed you can get a reduction
