I was stopped for doing 48 in a 45 limit once! police probed car i asked them to look at my speedo! they did and asked why?

"where is the 45"? they said errrr it goes up in 10's! yes 20-30-40-50 i can hoover about between 40 and 50 but no idea where its really at! they noted it but where really peeved no fine )

Under your arguement you could disconnect your speedo and claim to the police that you had no way of knowing what speed you were going and therefore deserve to be let off!!!!

The old addage is right - Never argue with an idiot, they'll drag you you down to their level and then beat you with experience.
