From what I understand if the notice has "Recorded Speed" above is correct but if the notice only has "Alleged Speed" they can claim to have measured the speed another way.

Going to court is a lucky dip where most times you will lose...especially if you don't have a baristor...and don't believe that it can't get any worse, if you have a history they can increase fines and penalties.....but like most of the others on here I'm not a barristor, cant even spell it, but unless your first stop is to see a barristor don't waste your time going to court.

I've managed to get out of a lot of fines over the years and I reckon the golden rule is make sure you know the law regarding the offence at least as well as the cops then you know if they have made an error or if there is a loop hole otherwise you are relying on luck & wasting your time.

yeah... if he had a radar... you've done your dollar... if he didn't SHOW you the radar.

got to court like i am. The officer HAS to show you the read-out otherwise he's breaking the law.

There is also the method of guestamation or something... but sounds like they got you more ligit than when they pinned me.

That's why i'm going to court.

They calibrate the speedo pretty accurately and the calibration can in fact be adjusted, so that i think can be used as evidence instead of a radar.

They will always believe the word of police officer over that of a pleb unfortunately, especially if two officers are there vs just your word. They know that too.
