i understand that but if the cop catches u over the speed limit ur fuked, sayin he was behind a buildin isnt gona get u out of it u broke the law..like i said his word against urs..and if the property manager is allowing cops to sit there they can...
Well actually, if the cop was behind the building with lights off, it's considered a form of entrapment, which is illegal. Which means that the cop most likely wouldn't have caught you speeding had he or she been following the law themselves. So yes, you actually can have the ticket thrown out in court....

entrapment-To lure into performing a previously or otherwise uncontemplated illegal act

how are they in any way luring you to do anything? If a person is speeding they are speeding...if cops are doing a sting for drag racing & pull out their camaro z28 street racing bait car and get you to bite on a race thats considered intrapment right? Would they still take your car? more then likely they will so either way just do the right thing and you should have few if any problems
