Trust me ive tried to get out of many a ticket that way.
As for the topic question, they must follow you and maintain a speed with you not pulling away or them gaining on you for a period of 250 meters under 100 and 500 meters over 100. Once they have done that and both occupents of the police vechile have acknowledged your speed they can then pull you over and bust you for it.
I got done for doing 65 in a 50, my speedo said i was doing 58 which i admitted to, got my speedo checked and its right, but i still got slugged with the fine and demerit points for it.

Ahh yes, and then we get to the matter of cost vs gain. The ticket is only worth $150, and I could easily spend that on a solicitor. It's not worth it for me to pay to overturn it, I'm not going to lose my license from it. I'll just write a few letters, submit a few forms, make a general nuisance of myself and then probably will have to pay anyway.

18-07-06, 22:30 GMT+10#28 Just go to the local station and see what they have to say, cant hurt or cost you anything. Be honest and friendly and they may just tear it up for you.
BTW, i'd drive the misses little lazer there too.
