You would of noticed (as would of everyone) multiple times being pulled up and 'TOLD' you were doing a certain speed over or a certain amount but never gotten a fine or anything, most of the time this is because they don't have actual proof, just suspicion. this is because once you admit to the speed - they can book you.. If you're confident, tell them that you were doing the speed limit.. They can't do anything.
dude, I dont think you got off because of no 'proof'... in fact it was probably the copper being nice and letting you off with a warning.
I'm pretty sure that the police car itself (and the expert driving it) is proof enough for a court of law. an officer doesnt have to show you anything! if he was driving at 60 and you flew past in excess of the speed limit, his testimony would be enough. police car speedos have to calibrated every few months as far as I knew, for this very reason.
