My youngest son just sort of beat his last speeding ticket (his
third in as many years!)
He got two continuances, hoping the LEO who wrote the ticket
wouldn't appear, but he did.
He got it knocked down to 6 mph over the limit because he showed
that he had recently had his speedo worked on, which he had. The
officer used his cruiser's speedo to "clock" him, so he argued that
the manufacturer's tolerances were a certain percentage of the
stated value, and backed it up with data from Ford (it was a Crown
Vic.)
He said the cop was pissed as heck.

You've gotta be careful about them (POd lEO). They often start
hunting the kid to "get even" With the current attitude/training
where they believe everyone they stop is a terrorist, it is pretty
easy for them to make claims with little or no substantiation. Then
they can escalate the "incident" May be a good time to put him in a
different car.
