Partial victory in traffic court today

[82 GT]

About a month ago I posted that I got a ticket with the new Robic(stopwatch) system.
I was measured going 53 in a 35 mph zone between a 195 ft. distance.

I presented the judge with the math formula that's used to calculate vehical speed between two points.
I argued that a .5 second delay was reasonable for a human and showed how much of a delay affects calculations.
The officer claimed that since he "anticipates" approaching cars, his accuracy is right on the money with no delay......LOL.
In my closing argument, I stated the fact that no human can have perfect reaction even in anticipation or not and that a .5 second delay was reasonable.

The judge said" I will give you the benefit of the doubt" and reduced my ticket to 45 in a 35 zone.
I did try to mention earlier that human error is introduced twice but I don't think the judge was going to give me a full second of error.
When I left the courtroom, the officer said that I did some very nice research and was actually impressed.

I feel it's still a victory for me because I was positive that I was not going almost 55 mph that day.
In all honesty, I might have been going 45 mph but there was no way in hell I was doing 55
I kind of feel that the judge should have thrown the whole thing out since I proved "reasonable doubt" and that there was no way to be sure exactly how fast I was going but I'll settle with his decision I guess. I can appeal but I doubt any other judge will give me that full second delay I was looking for which would have further reduced my speed to 38 mph.
