| This is not the kind of thing you expect to hear these days is it? That must be the total of the county's bike cops out in one place too - probably needed to justify their existence and your lad was in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Unfortunately, police officers are considered to be "expert witnesses" and so are can determine that he was doing 40 in a 30 limit. The fact that there was 2 of them means it will be harder to argue. I do not know whether their "expertise" stretches to an oncoming motorcycle in dodgy light - lets face it most car drivers struggle to even SEE the motorcycle let alone know how fast it is going or register that it is moving at all.
Do I sound cynical? Sorry ... and apologies to the fine up standing law enforcement officers who I know are members of the club, and who I have a lot of respect for. There are always exceptions to the rule and hopefully these 2 are the exceptions NOT the rule!
Good luck to you and your lad Derek, please tell us how it goes. |
