The court convicted the defendant of speeding and imposed a 200 zloty fine along with court costs. The prosecution, the local guard, successfully proved the violation using speed camera data despite the defendant's refusal to testify. The court found the defendant guilty because the evidence was sufficient and no legal excuses applied, while also considering mitigating factors like his family situation when setting the fine amount.
