Police do not need radar. It is a nicety that can confirm their own observations. However, the police officer is allowed to testify as to his observations, which in your case might include (1) he was going 85, (2) in relationship to his car YOU were going 85 (3) as he approached you, when he was going 65, in his experience, you were going 20 mph more than he was, and (4) you're croaked.
Having said that, go to your hearig and dress well and treat the court or hearing officer with respect and give them a credible account of how you really were not going that fast, there were many other cars which could account for a confusing situation in which the officer saw another car weaving, and if you're having a good day they may only hold you responsible for going 75, lower fee. In the alternative, tell them you would plea responsible to a speeding but NOT the reckless operation. See a Pennsylvania lawyer who knows the inside tricks.

I agree you don't need to be caught on radar to be issued a ticket. You may want to speak with an attorney before going to court.
