Radar Detectors Revealed In All Their Glory

Radar Detectors Revealed In All Their Glory

What is a radar detector? It is an electronic device that tips a motorist off if radar equipment, as used by the police for example is anywhere in the vicinity. The object of the exercise is therefore to avoid radar traps and therefore speeding tickets.

The radar guns used by law enforcement officers is used to measure the speed of a moving vehicle or object, relative to a fixed point. There are two core components to the radar detector, a transmitter which sends out a radar signal, and a receiver which collects returning data.

In its simplest sense, radar is used to work out the distance of one object from another. It stands to reason therefore that if the distance of a moving object can be recorded twice, and the distance moved by the object, the speed of that object can be easily calculated.

A radar detector can locate police radar guns with a basic radio receiver. More sophisticated detectors also have a transmitter as well as a receiver, which can effectively jam the radio waves of the radar guns, confusing the data that is returned to the police equipment.

Technology has moved forwards to try and beat the radar jammers, using laser technology. Instead of using radio waves, laser guns use concentrated light beams to detect speed and movement. Because light travels so much faster, the offending vehicle is often detected before the detection equipment has discovered it is being recorded. Not to be out done, laser detectors have been created in order to jam laser guns as well. The technique used is similar to that used for radio jammers.

At the end of the day, you pay your money and then you make your choice as to the best system available for what you can afford. The more expensive systems will offer you a wider range of protection, but you have to pay a premium for the privilege.

    You should be able to call the courthouse and find out the points and fine.

    As far as beating it, that will be difficult. The officer is almost always given more credibility in court.

    Some will probably suggest demanding the radar calibration records, records of the officer's training, or just hoping the officer doesn't show up. These methods are time consuming and rarely work.

    Most people will agree your best bet would be to meet with the prosecutor, and try and negotiate a reduced fine and/or points.

    The officer in FL has to be not only Post Certified to be an officer but also has to be certified and trained on the specific type of radar equipment they are using. ( radar or lazor)
    Next I forget if it is annual or bi anunal but they are required to go to training to keep thier certification up ( something many forget, can't get into a class or they are late getting the class)
    so every day there are some officers running radar where thier certifiction has become outdated.

    Next the actual radar equipment has to be FCC licneced and tested, and every day upon the start of his use of this equipment he has to do a tunning fork test for calibration.
    There is a log carried in the car with the radar unit where they enter the test results.

    You can request this from discovery of evidnece though the court. But should be doing it with an attorney.

    It will cost you more to beat it, than the fine, and one ticket on your record has little effect

    Keep resetting the court date until they will no longer allow you. Hopefully the officer will not show up to court, thus your ticket will be dismissed.

  9. laxhomi says:

    Prove beyond a reasonable doubt that you were not speeding.

  10. Fds F says:

    Go to court and hope the law enforcement officer don't show up then it is automatically dismissed, or go to traffic school and then it is dismissed after completion then again you can just pay it and not speed anymore

    the amount of time you are spending on trying to beat this ticket is not very cost effective. Plus most of the sites you have researched all charge a fee.

    The choice is yours pay the ticket or pay someone for the information to beat the ticket and have the possibility of still having to pay the ticket

  11. frank says:

    "I was not speeding, here is my proof________"
    If you can't say that, you deserve the ticket, the points, and the fine.

    Learn to slow down and you won't have this problem.

    If you were speeding and were caught there is really no way to beat it , the only thing that can happen is if when you go to court if you are fighting the ticket and the officer does not show up then it will be dismissed .

    amazing! Willy teach me how to paint like you!

  18. fox says:

    So you were speeding (why else would you admit it?) and told the Officer you were speeding when he stopped you. Well, your chances are somewhere between my becoming the Crowned Prince of North Dakota and my son's request for snow on his birthday (he was born in July and we live in the South).

    Who knows, stranger things have happened, but the judge is going to love the part where you admitted it to the Officer. It will be up to the judge.
