Can you scan and post the affidavit? That can help me and others come up with some motions for your defense in court.
Here it is quoted, rather than scanned ( I deleted the infraction # and the officers name and number. Where you see underlines those were boxes.)
AFFIDAVIT OF SPEED (RADAR)
(Infraction number was written here).
On the date and time listed on the document, I was operating a radar unit, a
MPH Bee III, KCSO #17, Serial #BEE930000925 in Stationary mode, on Greaves Way, in the 3000 block, within Kitsap County, WA. This speed-measuring device is approved for use in the State of Washington. Before and after my work shift, I completed the following tests to verify this radar unit was operating properly:
1) I tested this radar unit, using the tuning forks that are designated for testing of this particular unit, to determine its functionality and accuracy. Based upon this test, the radar checked as accurate.
2) I tested this radar unit using the internal testing mode designed to internally test this unit to determine it functionality and accuracy. Based on this test, the radar unit is accurate.
3) I checked the L.E.D. read out display to insure that all lights were working. This insures the proper reading of the target's speed.
This speed-measuring device has been checked and calibrated by a technician and certified to be in proper working order. I have satisfactorily completed the prescribed training course for operation and utilization of radar to determine vehicular speed from the Washington State Criminal Justice Training Commission.
I observed defendant's vehicle: South bound; Alone in the radar.
The patrol vehicle was parked on the shoulder.
I visually observed the defendant's vehicle traveling obviously faster than the posted 35MPH speed limit. The radar unit emitted a clear, high, audible tone; the speed registered on the radar unit indicated the defendant's vehicle speed to be 47MPH. The audible tone and displayed speed were consistent with my visual observations. If in moving mode, I verified my speedometer speed with the radar displayed patrol speed and they corresponded.
The speed was X locked @ _ _ _ mph. X not locked, on the radar unit.
_ The defendant thought the posted speed was _ unknown; _ _ MPH.
_ The defendant said his/her speed was: _ unknown; _ _ _ MPH.
