Georgia | Local Municipality law
It is 4:30am, the COUNTY officer is running stationary radar on the side of the road. There are no streetlights where the officer was parked. I asked if the officer needed to be running radar with parking lights, he stated no but that he needed to be visible for 500 FT. and that he saw me from 500 FT away. Granted, my lights were on when I was coming down the road.
He was not visible for 500 FT away.
Can I plead not guilty simply on the fact that the officer was not visible from 500 FT away?
Thank you
