if it was a hand held speed gun, they're not admissable as they're wildly inaccurate.
I take it he wasn't a Policeman as he would know that they DO have to provide the certificate if you ask to see it.
If in doubt and it was a scam-era van, ignore it and it really will go away as i have done in the past through nessecsity.. ****** i can't even spell the damn word!
