GPS Used As Defence In Radar Speeding Case

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."

    My first contact with fisting was, of course, in San Francisco.
    I was out on the coast for a round of job interviews in the Bar
    area. My fluffy-sweater acquaintances in Cincinnati had scoped out
    the territory the previous summer and were full of dire warnings
    about South of Market in general and The Hothouse in particular,
    so of course that was the first place I headed. Now, fisting
    wasn't exactly a deep, dark mystery to me...somewhere along the
    line I had acquired the book from the movie classic "Erotic Hands"
    and I'd been jerking off to that for quite a while. You might say
    I was into the concept if not the reality.

    Well, The Hothouse was everything I had been warned it was...humpy
    dudes wandering around in body harnesses leading their slaves on
    leashes, the whole trip. I nearly came when I walked into the
    shower room hunkered down on a plastic hose while he sucked his
    buddy's oversize cock. I checked out the sling rooms, but I spent
    most of the night doing conventional if rougher-than-usual sex.

    I fell asleep with my door cracked. The next morning I woke up
    with this warm, wet feeling on my arm. I looked up and there was
    this hairy, muscular little dude impaled on my arm to the elbow!
    Holy shit! He looked down at me and grinned "Good morning" "Good
    morning yourself fucker." " Can you dig it!" "For sure, but I've
    never done it before" Well, that turned his motor on, and soon
    became oblivious that he wasn't gonna dismount my arm until he had
    showed me all the right moves. We ended up with me punch-fucking
    him doggy--style with a cheering audience of six or seven
    leathermen. Well, my arm was busy most of the morning, but my
    asshole stayed virgin.

    I sorta filed the experience away and chewed on it until my next
    trip to the coast. I only knew one dude in Cincinnati that was
    into handball, and we were friends, not fuck-buddies, so I didn't
    get a chance to practice again until another job interview took me
    to San Diego. The job panned out. and I moved to California.

    Now, you have to understand where I was coming from. Cincinnati
    is one of the most tight-assed Republican cities in the Midwest.
    There was one gay bar and no baths. If you wanted steam you had
    to drive to Cleveland, Toledo or Chicago. So the first couple of
    years in San Diego I was like a kid in a candy shop...baths, bars,
    and Balboa Park!

    I fisted if I was asked, and if I was in a "top" mood I got off on
    it to a certain extent, but something was missing. What that
    "something" was I found out one night at the old Fourth Avenue
    Baths in Hillcrest. I was cruising the "open" rooms and came
    across this hot little blond surfer-type. We started getting it
    on, and our hands both started to go for the ass about the same
    time, so he called a halt to go fetch the Crisco and poppers. Now,
    fisting wasn't particularly on my mind...I figured we'd trade fucks
    and that would be that. How was I to know that gay surfers in San
    Diego get into handball?

    Well. pretty soon we were pretty busy finger-fucking each other
    while we sixty-nined. Then he called a halt and sat up and looked
    at me. "Wanna go further?" "As in what?" "Fisting, man." "You
    or me?" "Whatever," he muttered. "Well, I've never had it, but
    I'm up for trying." Bingo! The idea of a virgin really pushed his
    button, so pretty soon I'm on my back with my ass propped up on a
    pillow and him sitting cross-legged below me.

    "Your head's gonna get it done for you" he told me. "You gotta
    want me inside you. It's just like takin' a big cock. It'll hurt
    like hell goin' over the widest part of my knuckles, but then once
    it's inside you're gonna lose your mind!" Well, we had smoked a
    couple of joints and I was pretty mellowed out and the dude wasn't
    tryin' to hurry me. We rapped about all kinds of shit, but all the
    time there was this gentle but insistent pressure at my asshole.

    Arbitrary yes but its a conservative recommended speed which most people can handle for that particular road in many weather conditions.
    If speed limits are changed then it means that the speed limit was too dangerous for most people to handle.

    The fact is if your arrogant enough to decide what speed you should drive at, you'd be in a crash relatively quickly.
    Few people would be able to regulate their speed correctly, you really need someone else to set it in stone for you.

    You say that the highways in Australia are designed to make money?
    I say that stupidity is expensive. Break the law and you have to deal with the consequences.
