> i just got off of a 40 in a 25 ticket. i pleaded guilty to 5 over the limit and paid my fine… in my attempt to get out getting the points i heard that vascar has 11 mph chance of being wrong. basically if your doing 34 in a 25 they wont pull you over, but if its 36 they can. i dont know how true this is just what i heard.

That’s not true. Vascar is just a calculator of sorts. The user enters the distance of the speed zone into the vascar unit and measures the time it takes a vehicle to cross two points. The vascar calculates the mph from the above information. It’s simple math. There is always human error since the user operates the switch to measure the vehicle’s time. I have an error factor if you want to play around with it.
