I'm wondering if i can get some advise on my situation.
Yesterday my wife was issued a speeding ticket in Mississauga. Apparently the officer told her she was doing 65 in 40 km zone. The officer reduced the ticket to 10 over the speed limit. Up until that point my wife had a clean driving record (we both do). I asked my wife if it was speed trap or if the officer had some sort of radar gun and she told me the officer didn't mention anything about radar gun or showed any proof that she was doing 65 km / hour. My wife is not type that speeds, she might be 10 km over the limit if anything, but that's about it. She told me that she is confident she wasn't doing 65.
My question is does the officer need to provide evidence on the spot as to how it was determined she was doing 65 km? Is it worth fighting the ticket? Will my insurance premium increase?
I reviewed the ticket and i don't see any technical "errors". The officer was in an unmarked vehicle and the ticket was reduced because of the clean driving record.
Any feedback is appreciated.
