so the other night, I was pulled over and the cop said he clocked me going 92 in a 65 zone.
the problem with that is, I have a radar detector that is pretty sensitive and goes crazy whenever i'm near a grocery store, let alone a cop radar. but this thing didn't go off at all when i passed the cop. also, when i passed the cop and i saw his headlights turn on, i looked down and saw 83mph.
my question is this: Do I try to fight this thing? Does saying "my radar detector didn't go off" count for anything in court? can this guy actually prove that he clocked me going 92? i live in philly pa and the ticket is 189 bucks and counts for 5 points on my license if i'm guilty.
lemme know your experiences with fighting tickets, radar guns and if they provide some sort of proof the cop can produce. i figure if they don't have some sort of radar reading, they can't prove me guilty.
