speeding in ga

What is the name of your state? Georgia
I was driving 50 in a 40, and (honestly) did not see the flashing lights for a school zone. Three Cobb County motercycle cops were about were standing about 500-600 feet away on the side of the road. I was tagged for doing 50 in a 25.
I found two sections of Georgia Code which I think could invalidate the charge. The office did not advise me of my right to have the device tested (GA 40-14-5). Also, GA 40-14-9 states evidence obtained using detection devices within 600 feet of a reduction in speed shall be inadmissible. Does GA 40-14-9 refer to where the officer was standing, or where my vehicle was when he clocked me?
Thanks for any advice.What is the name of your state?
