I definitely cannot afford a lawyer. Hell, I even will have a hard time buy=
ing any textbooks I need to back myself up. I'm hoping I can survive on two=
 sources:=20

1) the PA State Police Radar training manual (I assume one exists, hopefull=
y very similar to the one previously posted by Dave Wheeler http://www.uksp=
eedtraps.co.uk/frames.htm ) because it will hopefully explain the same prin=
ciples of size, shape, speed, etc all having valid influence. What better e=
vidence then the state trooper's own manual? And I was reading up on PA law=
 and there is this Right-To-Know law that allows me to request for certain =
records (http://www.psp.state.pa.us/psp/cwp/view.asp?a=3D4&q=3D160408) whic=
h hopefully the training manual is considered.

2) the operator's manual for the radar gun used. Unfortunitly I forgot the =
name of the unit the officer said during the trial, but I know I can reques=
t this information from the state police and get a court order if they don'=
t give it to me. Hopefully this will back up the claims in the PA SP Radar =
Training manual about how this unit can register a larger, faster, boxier o=
bject before a smaller sleeker one, etc.

The PA State Police charges a small fee for these records so hopefully that=
 won't kill me. Missing a second day of work, another 2.5 hour drive's wort=
h of gas, and toll on the turnpike might. But..=20

I also bought a book on beating traffic tickets. It was written by a cop an=
d provided some useful information such as what records you have a right to=
 request and how to pick them apart, things to do when pulled over such as =
recording the entire event and requesting to see the actual reading, tuning=
 fork, etc right then and there. If there is serious interest I could list =
the documents he suggest you request and a brief overview of picking them a=
part. I assume an overview like this wouldn't break any copyright laws? Las=
t thing i need right now...
