Legal Question in Traffic Law in California
Radar detection of speeding
I am looking for some documentation regarding the police department's use of hand-held radar to check the speed of oncoming cars.Essentially, what is the accuracy of this method and what is the standard-of-deviation of error in miles per hour. I am trying to determine whether I can contest a ticket I received for presumably 26 miles over the speed limit. I realize that I was speeding, but believe it was closer to 20 miles over the limit.

Check the Nolo Press web cite for their book Fight Your Traffic Ticket. Also search the internet for a website that is dedicated exclusively to fighting radar traffic tickets.
