Physical data is often used in the court system. In fact, police officers use radar to determine your speed when you are driving and admit that record in court if you are ever given a ticket. In one such instance, the police officer submitted data that goes against the claim of the driver, who is contesting his ticket in court. The police officer (who was stationary when he made the measure) claims that the driver was speeding at 44.7 m/s, but the driver claims he was only going 26.8 m/s (according to his speedometer). The speed limit was 60 mph. The driver argues that the radar gun must have been set incorrectly to record relative velocity. It is possible that they are both telling the truth?
