The defendant appealed, arguing the vehicle qualified as a wheelchair under Polish law and that the speed limit definition was flawed. The Regional Court rejected these claims, holding that the vehicle's speed exceeded normal pedestrian limits and that the defendant's foreign certification did not override domestic regulations.
