I guess SD987 is in the wrong place if he was looking for a sympathetic shoulder to cry on.

Adam, that made about as much sense as your previous 1,839 posts...I wasn't the one who got the ticket or was looking for sympathy.
I swear, if half the forum learned how to read as well as they type we could do great things.
And if you're still traumatized about me stereotyping your dad as a gold-chain wearing wife-beater in that other thread, then I apologize. Give it some time, you'll get over it.
Grizz, no problem, we're good.

As an ex-cop, let me suggest that there might be another side to the story. I can't say for certain in California, but in Oregon a citation could be written for something other than speeding if the speed could not be determined - such as Careless Driving. So who knows how he is claiming to have gotten the 90 MPH reading? I agree with the posts that question the logic of going to court and lying to show how unfairly you were treated.
My theory would be to use the declaration system and simply say that you had sped up for a short distance, but slowed before the cop was anywhere near you. The trouble with that logic of course is why would he have stopped you if he hadn't seen you speeding? Trust me, he didn't stop you because you were driving a Porsche. He saw a lot of other sports cars that day and probably left most of them alone.

Due Process....
Due Process is Due Process. Regardless of what David was doing was right or wrong, if he wants to go to Court to fight the ticket, he is certainly entitled to do so. That is his constitutional right, especially given the fact that traffic is considered to be a "quasi-criminal" matter. David has the right to present his case and let the Judge decide whether the government has satisfied its burden of proof and if David has any cognizable defenses under the law.
You should trust that the Court will be fair and impartial and will rule fairly and justly. Judges had judicial canons and ethics to abide by and you should trust in the system.
Maybe I'm biased based on what I do, but above all else - - DO NOT PERJURE YOURSELF.

No one said he did not have a legal right to challenge his ticket. Some of us suggested that he not avail himself of that right.
And now, I am shutting this down!
Thanks to all who participated.
