    A police officer who used a radar gun without authorisation has been acquitted of lying under oath about his qualifications

    A police officer who used a radar gun without authorisation has been acquitted of lying under oath about his qualifications


    James Phillip Cox issued hundreds of speeding tickets using radar he wasn't authorised to use.

    During a January 2023 trial at North Shore District Court, Cox told a justice of the peace he was certified to use the device

    His lawyer argues it was an honest mistake partly caused by a clerical error.

    The 31-year-old could have faced up to seven years in prison.
