Legislator summary
AI generatedThe appellate court upheld the first-instance verdict convicting the defendant of speeding and seatbelt violations. The defense argued that the speed measurement was flawed due to electromagnetic interference from the defendant's car and police equipment, claiming the expert's opinion was incomplete. The court rejected these claims, noting the expert explicitly confirmed the radar passed interference tests and that the alleged factors did not affect the measurement.
