It basically involves sending an affidavit of truth to the court stating one’s individual sovereignty. When the prosecutor fails to respond to the affidavit, it stands as truth and the judge apparently has no choice but to dismiss.

I’ve never tried it, and I don’t want to sound like an advocate, but the idea was intriguing and seems like it might actually work, and for more than just traffic tickets.

It’s probably best not to say anything. Speeding is a very difficult thing to challenge though because its not just the officer’s word against yours but his word and his radar against yours.

Naturally, in court, if you indicate you knew your speed, the police will report your comment about not knowing.

If you don’t know your speed, the court must take the word of the person who claims to have paid attention to it, the one who wrote the ticket.

I watched both parts and one thing is very, very clear: don’t EVER answer questions from the police. Any time I am pulled over I say something like “What SEEMS to be the problem officer?” If s/he asks how fast I think I was going, I say “I don’t know” and leave it at that. I say as little as possible (which isn’t hard because I’m a shy person in person; you would probably never guess that reading my posts).
