Re: Speeding in NY State (no Audi content)

I think that legally it means that undercover Police cars can only clock
your speed and tell to another unit in a marked car to pull you over. In
such case, you can insist in court that both cops (who ran the radar and
who pulled you over) are present on the hearing if you fight the ticket.
It is less likely that court days of two cops coinside and you have
better chances to win the case. >>
True enough in NY and in most states.FYI NOT the case in Massachusetts where
the MA supreme court ruled that the state can designate an officer to present
all the cases in traffic court and one must appeal in order to get the
arresting officer to appear.
