Re: 122 in a 90, received some disclosure need help decipher

Had my day.. Here's what happened.. Went up to the Prosecutor at the beginning, he had it marked that I was doing a charter application. Had me sit down. He pleaded all the others down.. The ones like mine were getting disobey sign $110 and 2 points. At the recess the prosecutor came up to me and of...

Re: tagged by laser gun for exceeding 20 over, reduced to 5

If you see the officer again, please be sure to commend him on his great police work for sitting at a speed change nailing people for 20 over and writing it up as 5 over.. What a waste of time - for what a few dollars in the local coffers?

Re: Thanks giving weekend on HWY138

What I find funny is that I am noticing a pattern to all of the speeds reported in these posts. I myself was caught for going 32 over as well as many others. Seems these lidar guns like to throw out 32 as a number? If you look at the various posts in various speed ranges the numbers are always the s...

Re: 122 in a 90, received some disclosure need help decipher

Back to business.. To recap, to date they have provided photo copy of notes and 4 page poor photo copies of the testing section of the manual. After receiving my initial disclosure I sent a second request, again requesting for short hand explanations and the full manual as well as model and serial n...

Re: 122 in a 90, received some disclosure need help decipher

Wow, no point of challenging the evidence I guess or even going to court.. I will suggest that the officer's install a visa/interac terminal so I can pay on the spot next time and they don't have to wait so long for their money.. Maybe even include the 15% tip option like restaurants.

Re: 122 in a 90, received some disclosure need help decipher

Have also seen in other posts where the visual ID of speeding before using the lidar is an important factor. At this distance and given the way the road is situated, I would have just come in to sight when the trigger was pulled. The notes state my speed and distance first and then go on to say the ...

Re: 122 in a 90, received some disclosure need help decipher

What about accuracy of speed if adequate testing was not performed at distance of over 500m? There seems to be plenty of case law to support that even where the driver was the sole vehicle on the road.

Re: 122 in a 90, received some disclosure need help decipher

Hmm.. Would like to read about proper operation of the device..If anyone has a pdf copy of the manual please let me know. The other angle of approach that I would question is the distance, beam is ~1.5 meters at that distance. Only one reading was taken, the notes claim I was passing another vehicle...

122 in a 90, received some disclosure need help deciphering

I was stopped for allegedly doing 122 in a 90. I requested disclosure and like most received the minimum. The notes are just a photo copy with no explanations or typing. Only received parts of the manual that pertain to testing. Appears the officer was using a "Laser Atlanta Speed Laser", ...
