Hi everybody. I got a speeding ticket. I think LIDAR measurement was affected by the fact that I had xenon flasher (tow truck) near me when I was zapped. LIDARs work at 905nm, Xenon lamps cover very wide spectrum uncluding IR. My question to everybody: how to present it in court so it (A) sounds believable and (B) sounds understandable. I lost clerk-magistrate hearing because police officer could not tell the difference between beam width and wavelength and magistrate just did not seem to care. Ideas? Opinions? Clues? Thank you! P.S.: no I do not need "don't speed" advice. We all know that most of the speeding tickets are written for nothing but revenue enhancement.
