My question involves a speeding ticket from the State of: California
I recently received a speeding ticket for going 83 in a 65. The CHP officer said that he tagged me using laser. How can I fight this?
- When he asked if I was speeding, I did not admit guilt and said that I thought I was going the speed limit.
- When I asked how fast I was going when he stopped me, he said "I don't know because you slowed down after seeing me".
- The CHP car was parked on the side of the road but the officer was returning to his car when I passed him.
Does his laser function with him outside of the car? How does he know it was me that tripped it and not another car? Since, he doesn't know how fast I was going when I stopped, is there away to discredit the lidar since he has no back up measure of my speed (pacing me with his vehicle).
Thank you for any advice!
