More Number 10 petitions

February 13, 2007 – 4:33 pm

Challenge to Laser Speed Traps for Motorcyclists

January 19, 2006 – 11:52 pm

I note a forthcoming challenge to the validity of laser speed readings on motorcyclists, on the basis that the hand-held and speed van lasers used have never been tested for accuracy on motorcycles. An appeal hearing is taking place on the 16th March 2006 at Nottingham Crown Court to decide the issue.
