Driving down Lockhouse road from Southampton towards the Westfield Pike entrance

Westfield, MassachusettsJan 20, 20031 Comments

As you come by the old cemetary on the left, you come under the Mass Pike and there may be a cop backed up to the underpass on the otherside on the right. You wont even see him til he gets behind you just past the apartmens. I was nabbed doing 50 in a 30. The speed limit until just before you get to the bridge is 40 and as soon as you get under the bridge there is a hill you go down. I got off because the cop checked off the radar and estimated boxes on the ticket

Comments:
Actually "The Police" have to check both boxes on the citation. According to proper radar training they must estimate before using the unit to make sure they do not just randomly select cars. They must estimate them to be driving to fast and then confirm that using the radar. Tickets are routinely dismissed not because the people are actually innocent but because it is up to the magistrate just like getting the ticket in the first place is up to the officer. About half off all tickets are dismissed only because the magistrate felt like it.
