The charge is speeding, the "fine" is the speed. If you were doing 110 in a 100 than you can say the 10% inaccuracy means you weren't breaking the law (speeding). If you were doing 115 in a 100 they'll maybe lower it to 5 over but it'll be a far stretch to say you "weren't speeding".
In my court case recently they used one of my onboard videos (with my permission). It didn't show my speed, but showed my tach, etc. The crown was trying to say I was doing more than the 20km/h "recommended" ramp speed (not in and of itself a crime, but to add to my "careless driving"), but when taking into account my -1/+3 sprocket setup (had a receipt dated two weeks prior to the accident for the installation of the sprockets with my VIN# on it), using the website http://www.gearingcommander.com right in court I was able to prove, using RPM's and gear, with a -1/+3 I was doing 18kph
The crown freaked and wanted to get my -1/+3 receipt thrown out, as there was no proof it was installed on the bike at the time of the accident. The judge said because the VIN# was on the receipt, it was the crowns duty to prove it had been changed since the state it was in two weeks prior to the accident woot
