A few years ago I was stoped for 79mph in a 55mph zone by Arkansas State Trooper. I told him I was not going 79 that I had cruise set on 61 and would take a ticket for that. He asked if I was getting smart with him, I told him no, just telling the truth. He made me get out of my car, I had to get in the front seat of his, then he gave me this " you dumb hick " speach about what a radar unit is and it said 79mph. I told him it must be wrong. He pulled out a tunning fork sounded the fork and held it to the radar gun three times. I suppose it was to read 55mph but each time it had a different reading. One time as high as 64 mph. I told him I didn't think his radar was working right . He then told me to get out of his d*** car. As soon as I did he took off spinning tires throwing rocks.

As a volunteer fire chief, I work with law inforcement a lot at accident scenes, ect. For the most part they are all just doing there job and are good people. Unfortunately it only takes a few like the one I mentioned above to give them all a bad reputation.

I woould go to court and question the method he used to determine your speed and simply ask if the radar was calibrated according to manufatures requirements. Take witness. Just my thoughts.
