Nightime Radars (police)

[SS8_Gohan]

hi,

just wondering how a cop car parked in a street, at night time, using a hand held radar goes about catching you for speeding, etc?

Can they get your license plate a nightime without a flash, just using the handheld radar?

Or if they think you're over, do they have to pull you over?

cheers,

chinny

The handheld laser thing has never taken your plate numberplate. Its used to determine your speed only.

The police will always pull you over using a hand held.

unless its one of the contractors with the roadside cameras. They are infared. No need for light/flash on the new ones.

it was a marked cop car.

so the marked cop cars will pull you over if they wanted to fine you?

theres usualy a cop parked further up the road, and he will just radio him to stop you

cool, thanks guys. i was just going along and saw this small red dot in the distance flashing at me, as it was 3am my headlights reflected off the decals once i got closer and then saw the red dot belonged to a copper sitting in his car, pointing a radar up the road (sitting at the edge of a side street to the main road)

wasn't in the 'Line so maybe that was working in my favour

if your only a little over generally they wont get you unless your 8-10km/h or more over

thats generally speaking... if its a quiet night for them they are having a quiet night then anything over 3 km/h your a target.
