Re: traffic infraction
He CAN, but it doesn't make for a good case on his part. No police officer can accurately testify that he knows how fast you were going just based on his vision with no other instrument to back him up. Perhaps another officer caught you on radar and just radioed it in.
It isn't entrapment, by the way.
