GPS Used As Defence In Radar Speeding Case

Posted by kdawson on from the could-be-onto-something dept.

James Thigpen writes "There is an article over at Ars Technica about an accused speeder contesting his speeding ticket based on his car's built-in GPS system's records. According to the article his car says he was going slower than the radar gun clocked him at. Contesting a ticket based on GPS data has never before been tested in court."

    He has somewhere between 0 and no chance to win this. Who gives a shit what his GPS says. If the radar gun was properly calibrated and can be documented as such, it makes 0 difference - he's screwed.
