This link will take you to a page which explains the information that appears on the LTi 20-20 Lastec traffic videos.
UPDATE 21st January 2009 Motorist beats 98mph charge UPDATE 7th February 2007 MCN has the following. QUOTE Frank Garratt admitted the speed meter can make a host of errors including ‘slip’ error. UPDATE 12th September BBC Inside Out broadcast a follow-up program about the accuracy of the LTi 20-20 and a RealPlayer video of the relevant part of the programme is available for download here (38Mb). There is a lower resolution WMV file available here. (3.68Mb) There is also an article about this program on the BBC Inside Out Website. Inside Out – BBC South West: Monday February 28, 2005: NOTE A 16Mb RealPlayer clip from the programme, can be downloaded from this link. “Mobile speed cameras are increasingly being used by the police to enforce speed limits, but how accurate are they? We look at these cameras and see if their claims of accuracy are themselves accurate.” You may also find this recent Wiltshire case of interest - the Crown dropped the charge, rather than disclosing the traffic video. Watch the video in this case carefully and decide for yourself. Did the motorcycle decelerate from 107 mph to 87 mph, without braking? You may also find this US case of interest – “Laser Loses a Legal Test” We can also provide the recording as a SVCD, which will play in most DVD players. The result of the case was as follows: Guilty of travelling at 107 mph Disqualified from driving for 28 days £500 fine and £1000 costs - the prosecution asked for £2000 costs. The defendant couldn't afford to go to appeal and in any case, at the time, Mr Garrett was the only recognised "expert" on the LTi 20/20 in this country. That may have changed now. -------------------- Regards, Mika

Was this an LTI 20.20? Funny how the "retired" officer wasn't able to come and give evidence eh? I know of one case where a retired officer came back to give evidence.

BBC News Article The camera operator in my case was NOT investigated for perjury because he was ill! Funny that he still works Wiltshire Police but has still not been interviewed regarding the perjury accusation. This officer probably signed an S9 statement saying that he formed a prior opinion, and will notbe investigated for making up the evidence. -------------------- The devices referred to in this Code of Practice, although the subject of rigorous field and laboratory testing, are only as reliable as the user.

Lastec Local System in conjunction with LTI 20.20 TS/M Speedscope
Can someone answer a simple question. Can this device be activated without the intervention of the operator?. ie can it be set up and left to operate itself ?. -------------------- DW190
