Have you guys commenting actually been to court for yourselfs to comment? (or as Peter says, are us Brits liers?)
Im not sure why theres this big thing about being scared of going to court. Actually going to court yeah (i was scared poopless!!!), but once your in, you see al the chavs in trackies etc f-ing and b-ding in the rooms, when your dressed in a suit and speak properly, it goes a LONG way....

Sigh.
You made the point that the copper has to prove you were speeding, in your example. THEY DONT. That doesnt mean to say you can't discredit them, but that's why I specificaly said if all things are equal, all that's needed is their word.
If you go to court knowing they have no verifiable proof, but thinking all you have to do is say 'prove it' to avoid a conviction, then you're sorely mistaken.
