Default is being paced legit?

a cop was following me one or more cars behind me, it was jenkins, but he gave me a ticket for speeding but instead of using a radar he "paced" me, i never heard of this before, or i didnt think it was legit as the radar, where he said he paced me at was also at a downhill, he gave me a ticket for going alot higher then i could have sworn i was going, my first encounter with jenkins =(

they only have to pace you for 1/5th of a mile, and as sad as it is to say it, yes it's legit

It's legit. your only hope is that he didn't have his speedometer calibrated.

He doesn't have to have his speedometer calibrated the same day. All he has to do is get it calibrated within a few days of the pace. And like everyone else has said, yes it's legit.
