Well that is smart, but I assume you are talking about a small jurisdiction. That could work. But the major portion of tickets are on highways in NJ by state troopers. The sheer number of tickets in most jurisdictions makes it impossible to have the certificates on hand. If you do not have the certificates for both the device, the facility and and what it was tested against, then they should have appealed the court's decision. It is against the law. Cops are onlydoing their job. I don't blame them. Part of speed enforcement is safety and part is revenue. All a municipality has to do is buy a radar or laser device and rake in the dough. ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Something is new at Yahoo! Groups.
