This article was posted on nj.com on January 15, 2005. This is a follow-up to the Josh Losito DUI and speeding case involving GHS radar.
To keep things short, the issue at hand was that GHS radar units were banned from use during from September 3, 2003 to December 14, 2003 in 2003 and newer models of Ford Crown Victoria’s and Josh Losito was clocked with a GHS radar gun on December 4, 2003 while the guns were banned from use.
The trooper that stopped Josh was driving a 2001 model Ford Crown Victoria, so the ban did not apply to him. A slight technicality, but it cost a win.
Frankly I think if there was a ban, it should have been a wide-spread ban regardless of the year of the vehicle because, as John Timothy Shingara stated, the problems occurred in Crown Victoria models of varying years.
