I've got a nifty little computer for my vehicle. It plugs directly into the data link connector. It gives the speed, engine rpm, throttle position ect. I do alot of driving. So when I go some where for work I bring it with me. If I so much as see a cop, I press record data. It records about five minutes worth of time stamped information. I can hook it up to a computer and print out the info. It will show how fast I'm going. I'm not sure it would help me in court, but it's still nice to have. I can see why check engine lights come on. I think you should persue the matter. I have alot of respect for the good cops out there and none for the ones that abuse their power. Personally, As soon as they told me I could go, I would have filed a complaint right then and there. Good people should not have to fear the police. I would definitely call and check for the records. He may have charged you with more offences than you even know. Good luck.

BTW, I know in some states you do not have the right to see the radar gun, But you did. I would make sure that it was known. I would have signed the ticket, but I would have driven straight to the police department afterwards and filed a complaint.
