Dear Jesse
I have been asked to let you know that Police requires an extension of
time in which to respond to your request for:
1- The method of how NZ police officers in a patrol car estimate the speed
of a moving vehicle while approaching that motor vehicle from the opposite
direction.
2- The criteria for NZ police officers to issue an infringement based from
estimated speed.
This extension is pursuantto section 15A(1) of the Official Information
Act 1982, because the request necessitates consultationssuch that a proper
response to the request cannot reasonably be made within the original time
limit.
Police require until 20 November 2018 to provide a substantive response to
your request.
You have the right to ask theOffice of the Ombudsman to review this
extension.
Kind regards
