The burden of proof is on them, though....if neither the conditions of the roads or the circumstances involved allowed them to get an accurate radar reading, then they've got nothing. If they paced you while you were doing the speed limit, I see no fault there either.

The guy knows he was speeding. This does not seem to be in doubt. Fault is not in dispute here as far as I can see.
