I was cited for speeding on the bay bridge, the officer pulled me over at the treasure island exit and approximated my speed at 70mph where the limit is 50 mph. The officer did not mention any radar, laser, or other electronic device that he based his approximation on, and the ticket only says the approx speed 70 and p.f/max speed 50.
Is the lack of a radar, laser, or other electronic device is bases for a dismissal?
Also I found this "if that prima facie speed limit is not justified by an engineering
and traffic survey conducted within five years prior to the date of
the alleged violation" in California Vehicle Code Section 40802 paragraph a subparagraph 2. How can i find out if there has been an engineering and traffic survey in the last five years that justifies the 50mph speed limit, and is that another good base for a dismissal?
Thank you
