There's only one place to get the certificate. It's behind Haynes on Virginia Beach Blvd.

And call these guys.

You can ask the Judge for the certificate and maitenance log for the Radar gun, but let me tell you radar guns are never that off parameter, trust me I know!!!!
Just be prepared!!

Don't go the radar cal. route. Go the speedometer cal. route. I just off a ticket out in Suffolk that way. Best of luck.

check the # of the law you broke, like you know how they have to write the law # on you're ticket? well with my first wreckless the cop wrote the # wrong and i got out of it, go to your library and look up the # or just go to the police station and ask them to look it up

Yeah I'd suggest going the speedometer calibration route..I had to go to driving improvement a while back, and my teacher was cool as crap, he basically said you'll get a lot more slack if you get that tested. Most police state when they appear in front of the judge "I did a radar check to make sure it was in proper working condition blah blah blah" and the judge will believe him.
