short story is i got a speeding ticket today in staten island xpressway

cop claims he clocked me 72 in 50...dont know if it was laser or radar

but when i asked for a printout or proof of the clocked speed he told me that "we dont do that"

do i have a case in court or what?

 

there are cops that pull you over for speeding in new york....?? damn whenever I get into NY i just go as fast as I want... I dont think ive ever seen a cop on the highway before.

 

Found this site:
http://www.mit.edu/~jfc/laws.html

Which would probably be a good sticky in a higher level forum.

Here is information on the NY speeding laws:

Here's one more link.

quick search for speeding.


And another:

Courts have ruled that due to officer safety, cops don't have to show you the laser/radar reading.

Reasons behind that rulling:

1. Traffic stops are the single most dangerous thing a cops does on a regular basis (more cops die from traffic stop than another other reasons)

2. People getting out of their cars presents a dangerous situation

3. Cops having to turn around and walk back to their car presents a dangerous situation since the violators knows he's getting a ticket

 

Your screwed with a ticket on the SI Expressway. My wife got one in the Z the cop claimed 85 in a 55 she was next to a tan van. The cop wrote tan on the ticket she was lucky to keep her licence with a lawyer and $800 for both crooks. Keep in mind my car is LeMans Sunset it was daylight and the car was clean. That cop is a SOB lier. Good luck I hope you win.
