I have been stopped now, twice, by the same Haymarket police officer (he calls himself that anyway), and I am going to contact the local represtatives, about filing a harassment complaint. I am a 19 year veteran of a police department, on disability. The first time that I was contacted by this officer, was when he was attemting to perform radar operations. I was suppposedly caught on radar, first, in an area where he could not have seen me without obstruction(sitting in the church parking lot where there is a large tree and a curve in the way). Secondly, he was operating the radar backwards, looking in his rear-view mirror!! I have 19 years experience in operating both radar and laser units, and have never seen them operated effficiently in this strange manner. There is no way that you can acurately visually estimate that a vehicle is traveling over the speed limit backwards. This is basic training in oprerating these units. Also, you must be able to have a vehicle in the radar's path for longer than when they are on top of you. You must perform these two tasks simutaneously,to assess a vehicle's speed efficiently and acurately. When I went to court, to prove this officer's inadequacies (photos, sketch, etc.), I was told by the judge "although I agree with you, i'm going to side with the officer." I asked for an appeal, whereas the state's attorney, who represents the Haymarket PD called me and was told they needed a "continuation" to another date, because of a scheduling conflict, with the officer. I was never sent a court date after that, and subsequently got a notice from the DMV that my license was going tobe suspended for not paying the ticket.
