My pastor at church, who is also a Captain of the police dept. where I live, mentioned tonight that Cops have to do a speed survey of 75 cars before giving someone a ticket in that location. Regardless of the posted speed limit, the average speed at which the current traffic is flowing (the 75 cars surveyed) is the new determined speed limit and therefore you can not get a speeding ticket for anything under that speed, eg. average speed is 70 in a 55 and you get a ticket for doing 68 then you take it to the court and you automatically win the case. I’m not sure where you go to find out the survey info for the date/time/location for your case in particular but probably just the police station that the Cop works at.
"Old technology is OK as long as it works, right? All the "ox cart" comparisons don't hold water as far as I'm concerned. We've been using wheels, for example, for thousands of years and I have 4 of them on my Z. Why? Because they're simple and they do the job well."--John P./ August 03, 2004 at 3:44 PM
