There is an out
Fred,
There is an out if you are willing to hire a good lawyer; Some German motorist have successfully counter sued the police using the article 14 of the European Court of Human Rights.
Article 14 – Prohibition of discrimination
The enjoyment of the rights and freedoms set forth in this Convention shall be secured without
discrimination on any ground such as sex, race, colour, language, religion, political or other opinion, national
or social origin, association with a national minority, property, birth or other status.
The argument is that the police are discriminating against motorist when they photo only the front of the vehicle, because motorcyclist don’t require a front license plate they are not subject to prosecution from GATSO cameras. Some GATSO speed traps now have front and rear views to count this loophole.
The article 5; privacy intrusion is not holding water here and is down to individual Judges and cases as to whether you may get away with that or not.
You will need big money and a good lawyer to win. The chances are that you will keep your license but have to pay costs.
Paul
