"The Prince George’s County police officer who pulled over a county councilwoman apparently driving more than 100 miles per hour on the Capital Beltway did not give her a speeding ticket because he did not have enough time to gauge the pace of her SUV, authorities said Wednesday."
"... [T]he officer, a 14-year veteran, did not use a radar gun to determine the speed at which freshman Councilwoman Karen Toles (D-Suitland) was driving before he pulled her over Feb. 22. The officer estimated how fast she was going based on the speed of his own cruiser as he raced to catch up with her, Davis said." ... -------
KABA Note: But in Ohio a policeman's visual estimate is sufficient for the courts. Why not in Maryland? |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
