VIC Unfair Speeding Ticket

Take the matter to court. Be prepared to spend 2 or 3 days at court.

The magistrate will not bother with the dash cam to consider the policeman's behaviour as it is not relevant to the speeding charge. Having another car in front of you is also not relevant.

Does your dash cam include speed readings? If so it is admissible.

 

I can add to Rod, don't worry to argue about the policeman's attitude, remember the police deal with a lot of people who don't show respect, that is why most police officers deal with no emotion (let's say that), most times I don't blame them at all, once you take this point of view. The police are here to protect not a Nanny. In my opinion show them respect, if anyone does anything improper, you can report it, not more than that, I can say most are good but there are few who are bad apples as you can say (just like in any group).

If you have dash cam, then this is your ticket out, use science.... do you remember this: take a distance and time from the video and you can calculate your speed (in very reasonable rate I can say), if you find yourself within the speed limit, then go to the court, this will be your defense and the court will accept it - no question about it. Just forget about the policeman's attitude, it will not help you at all.

Have a read of my post "Riding a Scooter in Car Park Without a Helmet?", in my statement to court/magistrate, I did not mention anything about the police officer's attitude but it was shown through how I wrote my statement, and the matter was dismissed. this is an advice I can give.
