Radar to catch me going 106 km/h in a 70 zone
Tuesday, September 25th, 2012I got a ticket on the 24th of July for speeding. The highway patrol officer used a radar to catch me going 106 km/h in a 70 zone. It was the highway heading towards the Champlain Bridge from Montreal.
He stopped me and explained to me why I was being stopped. He went back to his car to write up the report along with the ticket, in the meantime I thought about taking out my phone and film his reaction when I ask him about his radar permit. I put my phone in my cup holder that way he couldn’t see that I’m actaully recording.
I asked him if he had a “Permis de radariste”, he paused and said yes. Then I asked him if I could see it and he said that he isn’t obligated to show it to me. Can I contest the fact that he didn’t show me his permit? Some cops don’t have their permit on them and I could use that o my advantage.
He gave me 232$ in fines and 3 points off of my license.
I still have the video and the audio is clear, can I use that as evidence in case he is the one that is at fault?
Thanks
