Re: 105 in 60, officer lost sight

Thanks again everyone, good to here different opinions. It seems the general consensus is I'll have to wait until I receive disclosure and find out what evidence the officer has. I am going to consult with a paralegal however it seems this is mostly a waiting game.

Re: 105 in 60, officer lost sight

Radar Identified was pretty spot on. If you want to make this argument, you'll have to have a full blown trial. That being said, you're making a case out of assumptions. You have no disclosure and you're interpreting what the officer did and did not see. An officer doesn't need a 100% visual of your vehicle at all times anyways. Also, your story may end up hurting you more than helping you. It makes it sound like you were possibly aware of your speeding and were hoping to avoid the situation by pulling into your driveway as quickly as possible while your friends kept an eye out behind you.

Re: 105 in 60, officer lost sight

The second and more important issue is that the officer who alleges I was speeding did not catch up to my car until I was parked at home and had exited the vehicle. He also lost sight of my vehicle several times as I turned down several residential streets to get home. You weren't trying to lose him by any chance, were you? Do I have any chance of using the fact that he lost sight of me to have the ticket quashed? If he got your license plate - no way. To be technically accurate, you wouldn't get the ticket quashed, although you might be found not guilty at trial. The issue really is, did the...

105 in 60, officer lost sight

Recently I was cited for speeding 105 km/h in a 60 km/h zone. I have two problems, firstly I am 18 and have my G2 (insurance is already expensive) and although I will likely have my G by the time this is resolved I want this to have the least impact on my insurance possible. The second and more important issue is that the officer who alleges I was speeding did not catch up to my car until I was parked at home and had exited the vehicle. He also lost sight of my vehicle several times as I turned down several residential streets to get home. What are my options? I've already requested a court da...
