I think I might do a little math and test the officer's ability to judge speed in court. Held shoulder high, how fast is this nickel going when it hits the floor? I believe that a visual estimate can be fairlt accurate, but there's no evidence. Police: You were going what I estimate to be 75mph in a 55mph zone. Driver: My speedometer said 55mph. It basically comes to Police: Judge I think you should fine this guy $XXX. Driver: Please don't. I'm not saying visual estimates aren't accurate, but when there's no evidence, there's no opportunity to prove innocence.
