Sounds fishy to me - they don't have any "covert" cams like that in the pipeline, and even if they did, it would not have what they call "type approval" yet, and people would know about them already.
With no "type approval" it's not an acceptable method and I doubt a court would accept any evidence... Sounds like a wind up to me! |

Well.... I guess i was right to be worried!
 I recieved a summons this morning and statement and other bits! On the statement it says i was recorded doind an exact 90mph by a covert "pro laser"? but i cannot find any part on any form where i am able to request evidence! do i just right off to my local police station for this or what? Also how do i go about getting a solicitor? Am i only entitled to a free representation at the court (if i dont plead via post) or can i get a free solicitor to look at the case before the court appearance date? PLease help, all this legal stuff is beyond me |

Sorry to hear that, hopefully someone will be able to offer you good legal advice. The conversation at the time was awfully off imo.

Bummer - sorry, when you said about them testing it I assumed that meant it was a new thing - Pro laser are a recognised type and been around (and doing people) for a while now.
Scabby that they can hide it and not let people know it's there

Personally I'd give these people a ring as they're specialist bike solicitors:

As well as roadangel, etc. there's a new thing based on a garage door opener (they have same frequency as laser speedtraps) and if it picks up a laser signal it jams it, sounds an audible alarm for a few seconds, then turns off... giving you a few secs to slow down before they can measure you.
It gets around the illegality of jamming the signal by sensing it and switching off. Mate is thinking of getting one for his Subaru... though he never seems to go over 90 in it
