Mistaken identity?

[Number 5]

Doesn't HAVE to but most do.

Hmmmm, another bit of confusion here with what the operators policy states;-
"Operators should lock on the speed reading and maintain it on the device until the offender has had the opertunity to view the reading. The only exception to this is when another officer is operating the device and is remote from the officer stopping the offender.

"The speed and distance at which the vehicle was checked should be recorded on all offence notices" - This was not the case on the infringement notice issued to me.

Evidence in Court
The operator must be able to give in evidence that;
they are an approved speed enforcement operator
they conducted the required tests for the unit and found it to be working correctly
a tracking history was established for the target vehicle
the code of operations was complied with

Hmm, I was talking about radar - it seems you are talking about lasers.

Yes we were talking about laser, but in regards to radar the policy states;

"When the operator is satified the target vehicle is producing the correct reading they should lock the reading and take appropriate enforcement action.
It is not always possible to lock the target vehicles speed, however, failure to lock the speed will not prevent normal enforcement action being taken".

This is assuming the operator has had the time to obtain a proper tracking history, especially ground speed checks.

I would have thought the two processes are slightly different. If you measure the interval between two pulses you will know the speed of the target. No problem there.

But comparing the period (duration) of the transmitted pulse with the period (duration) of the received pulse is not quite the same.....

OK, now I see the confusion. Its my bad wording. It isn't comparing the duration of the pulse either sent or received, but the pulse interval, ie the duration btween pulses. As the transmitted pulse interval is known then it is only neccessary to measure the interval between successive received pulse. The duration of the pulse itself is meaningless.

If you actually look at the example I gave you will see that I talk about the time between pulses, not the time length of each pulse.

The speed and distance is recorded on the rear of the officers copy... not your copy. Everyone has the "opportunity" to view. Very few actually do.

any update did you contest???? win or loose

Of my last 4 speeding tickets, at least 2 of them I wasn't speeding, a third was doubtful but I may have increased from the time I first saw the cop until he put the lights on me, and one of them, yes I was over the limit.

So now I keep a GPS on the bike. Its not to tell me where to go, its so that I always have a record of my speed for this very type of situation. You can fight it, but remember that in traffic cases the onus of proof is on the defendant. Ie, guilty until proven innocent.

what type of gps do you use with all these fetures?? web site?

Haven't got that far yet. I'm writing a letter asking for the relevant details so I can contest, that will be sent hopefully this week coming. I'll keep yous informed of my progress....

[Jantar]

There are many GPS available that will record track data with distance and time between recording points. Until recently I was using a Garmin Etrex Legend, but I have just upgraded to a Legend Hcx.

They make a nice handlebar mount that the unit just clips onto.
