Court acquits driver of speeding due to invalid radar speed measurement equipment configuration.
Poland (PL)
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe court acquitted the defendant of speeding charges after finding the police speed measurement procedure legally flawed. Although radar and a control device were used, the equipment configuration lacked official approval, and the radar's technical tests were conducted with inaccurate environmental parameters. Consequently, the court ruled that relying on these measurements was impossible, leading to the defendant's acquittal and state liability for costs.
Legislator headnote
