Now then, he's pulled you over for the dashes. Great. If that's not a crime in your state and if you have your other T's crossed and I's dotted, he's got nothing on you. If you have registration, insurance, etc up to date and nothing else illegal going on, you just lost a few minutes on the side of the road. No harm no foul.

Here's where it gets interesting: If he decides to write you up for speeding anyway, grand. Let's see it hold up in court. With no documented speed reading from the gun, he's got no hard evidence. That makes it much easier to fight. If you have to/choose to push it to a jury trial, what evidence can he present? It "looked" like you were speeding? How can we gauge his ability to determine that in a way that 12 people too dumb to think of an excuse to get out of jury duty can understand? Case dismissed/acquitted.

Is any of that a guarantee? In these times, no. Chances are a bored (or annoyed) cop will find *something* to write you up for. However, every little thing that gives you an edge is useful. The main edge, of course, is to not drive like a jack-hole. Give him no reason to single you out of a crowd and you don't have any greater chance being pulled over than anyone else on the road.

Well put!!!
