Rubbish. Cop pulled me over after following me for about 20kms. My max speed was 107kph. When he pulled me over he said he clocked me at 130kph. He showed me his radar and it did indeed have 130 locked in but you can bet it was from the car he pulled over just before he pulled me up. I told him his locked in speed was bullshit and I could prove it via my GPS tracking. He then proceeded to tell me GPS was not a calibrated device and was prone to errors. He then told me I was doing nothing wrong but to slow down a bit. He then left.
I was pulled over for 111 a few years ago when my speed was more like 100. The cop said my speedo must be wrong and I got the same speech when I told him I'd checked it by GPS.
I let it go in the end because he was getting pretty wound up, plus I was relieved he hadn't clocked me 5 minutes earlier!

These previous posts are a good reason why a cop radar lock should be timestamped. If the shittiest Android phone is capable of time and date stamping a photo or text and the internal clock is set to GPS time (or network time or whatever) then it should not be beyond the capabilities of the radar makers
it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.
those cheap ass bitches can do anything with ductape.

He didn't clock you ... a few have been known to leave a speed reading in view. As he probably did prior to your stop ...
Next time don't let it go. "Getting wound up" means HE knew he was losing the battle ...
I was once told my GPS needed "Re calibrating" ...
And ask THEM what date their unit was last certified as being correct ...

You said never disclose that you have GPS tracking. If I had not I would have gotten a ticket for 130kph and then have to had gone through the bullshit of proving it in court. By telling him I bypassed all this.
And he was not a rookie cop and he knew what he was doing. He followed me for 20kms falling way back at times to try and catch me speeding but I stayed doing 105-107kph. When that failed he used the previous reading he had and got caught out. If he booked me for 107 then I would have said fair cop and accepted it.
