He's not going to contest it, he'll wake up to himself in a few more days as the time to take action looms closer. Though I'd love to see a video of it if he did front up in court. :D

If that's your argument, then forget about trying to fight it in court. As Pushka said, they don't have to pull you over immediately, especially if it wasn't practicable or safe to do so at the time. For example I was driving on the left lane next to an unmarked police car. The car in front...
