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."
Not really relevant to this as one is going based on time at a position (a case in which polling interval does not really matter unless one wanted to say that the driver kept moving back to the site every so often) and this one in which the speed is being questioned (where the speed is completely dependent on time as it is average). Even if the Korean guy's position was recorded every minute it would have little affect as he is only trying to prove he did not leave. If the other guy was being logged every minute it can prove little.
why did you read beyond the first line? faggot
Speed limit laws need to be made unprofitable for the government and then maybe we can get our freedom back on the roads.
What the hell does this mean? You want no speed limits?
I, for one, am glad that asshat speeders like this get tickets for speeding. Assuming the radar gun is correct, 62 in a 45 is totally unacceptable. The kid should have his license revoked. Even his parents admit he has a leadfoot. And his dad is a fucken cop. WTF..
