Default Interesting case.....

This case brings up a couple questions....

First, if this guy had lawyered up and went to court, how would his speed been proven to be 50mph? All the arguments about the difficulty in accurately measuring speed on the water would be even more applicable at night.

Second, the fine he received for the offense seems exceedingly light, considering he was traveling 1 and 2/3 times the speed limit. What woul.d the fine be if one were caught driving on the highway at 105+ MPH???

Cheers...
