New York Court of Appeals
The People of the State of New York v. James N. Olsen
June 5, 196822 N.Y.2d 230
Summary
The New York Court of Appeals held that uncorroborated opinion testimony from police officers who are qualified as experts is sufficient to sustain a speeding conviction when the estimated speed is substantially above the legal limit, and it reversed the lower court's order that had invalidated the conviction.
