Just a heads up to anyone planning on speeding though Ohio… despite the fact that it’s mostly flat and boring all the way down I-71:
“The Ohio Supreme Court ruled this morning that an officer trained to estimate speed by sight doesn’t need an electronic gauge to catch speeders.”
I know NYS police officers can do this as well, but I think it needs to be supported by radar or laser… am I right or wrong? :gotme:
wrong.
Link?
nope. they train to estimate speeds within 5mph and the radar is used for verification. however, they can write the ticket based solely on the estimation.
Wrong. My brother in law is a Tonawanda cop and he’s speed certified. Does not need to be backed up by radar or laser. They don’t need to be backed up at all just certified. It’s like a 2 week course.
yea also there is no proff of whether or not the oficer used radar so…
The ticket that I got for 85 in a 65 in NY that was labeled as “Officer Observed Speed” tells me that they do not need radar guns to get you.
i got screwed over last summer in pembroke on the 90 by a trooper. was in a rental car doing about 70, and he pulled over an suv that just passed me and myself, couldnt tell me how fast i was going but gave me the same ticket for 80mph with the laser that he tagged the other guy with. they can give you a ticket just because they feel like it, they dont need an actual reason. luckily through a hookup i got it reduced to a parking ticket with a 200 dollar fine. they wanted to give me points with a reduced speed as my not guilty bargain.
Key point is the NYS Trooper needs to be certified. That being said, quite a few are not.
Ah ok. I was pulled over once and the officer said my speed was visual first, then confirmed via radar. It’s good to know they can “guess” your speed here too.
Just get a PO Box out of state and have it forwarded to your addy and get an out of state license. Then you’ll never get points and will always just pay a fine. 
Because you can get a license with a PO Box :cuban:
Most states allow this
You CAN use any private mail box store if you’d like. I know multiple guys that do this.
:facepalm: I can’t tell you how many people i’ve pulled over in AZ that have their license AND vehicle registered to a PO box.
Hai Guyz… I know this guy that said he donated all of his income to charity so he didn’t have to pay any taxes this year!!!
-edit–
Sorry, I should clarify -
Because you can get a license and register a car with a PO Box and no proof of residency :cuban:
what the FUCK are you trying to say?
speed certified?
that’s fucking retarded, i’m sorry.
(i misspelled retarded as retraded at first and considered leaving it like that…)
This thread just got weird, thanks Walter.
walter is the biggest fggt ever, because he was proven wrong he’s gonna go the indirect route and make it sound like he was joking or somthing lame,like a fggt would do.
