So the road markings at this location are not conforming?! How many people have been incorrectly pinged? Could be a sticky wicket for the Scamera Partnership this one.

I am willing to bet the defendant is confused about the distance between the lines and the repeat distance. He will most likely be comparing the distance between the markings to that quoted for the repeat, the lines are 3-4" wide for that type of marking.
Seems like there has been a mistake in letting this chap go in my estimation.
