Using stationary radar on a busy highway. My intention was to show how pointless using a radar can be with 8 lanes of moving traffic, but I was proven wrong!

No wonder the cop is always pissed off when they walk up to my window.
I'd be one pissed off MoFo too if I had to listen to that thing make noise all day...
Bad Monkey so they should get a real job and stop trying to fuck with people who aren't really doing that much harm
if thats to me, you could do better than a daddy joke? Is that your cop your buddy? was he helping you type this out while he was behind you?
sumbumm when there's a axe murderer in your house dont call the cops than bitch
Fahim K won't need to city boy, plenty of weapons here to carry me through.
sumbumm 'get a real job'.
Probably makes 20k a year, says a police officer who makes 60k+ a year isn't a real job.
probably sits inside doing nothing, meanwhile police officers get shot at, spit on, attacked both mentally and physically.... Not a real job.
your logic. Has no reason.
It's not speed that kills. It's people going wildly different speeds that causes accidents according to studies. That's why the rate of accidents on the Autobahn is really low even though they go so fast. Also, they use the left lane to pass, which many Americans can't seem to wrap their minds around.
brian cole here in california, not a day goes by where you don't see a clueless idiot hog and drive exceptionally slow on the left lane
The left lane is the passing lane here.... it is a ticket able offense in many states but not all.
No, it is speed that kills. Having an accident at 85 mph is far worse than having one at 10 mph.
But an accident at 85 vs 56. Both chances aren't good.
Thunderbyrd So following your logic everyone should drive 10mph? Distractions are the real issue and the lack of personal responsibility.
When everyone is going 79 and you get clocked at 82 🤨
Speed limit is 70. He's already letting everyone go almost 10 over. He probably only stops people for going 10+ over. Also the stopping distance between 78 and 83 can be like 10 or 20 feet, which could mean life or death depending on the circumstances. The more you know! 🌈
@@XrunescapeXgodX Finally someone that gets it lol.
@@XrunescapeXgodX
Speeding is a victimless crime. How about we let those who actually cause the accidents pay those "tickets". Radical idea, I know...
@@XrunescapeXgodX So the cops go above 80 mph to catch the guy? Makes sense :|
@@henlofren7321 victimless until you kill someone
So if I keep it under 83 I'm good lol
Mark Aranita 🤣🤣🤣
Be sure to keep it on cruise control @ 82 just to play it safe lol
From my understanding anything under 80 is no big deal unless its a rookie cop who's ticket hungry or a dickmunch trooper
Is this on an interstate with a 75 mph limit? I usually go 10 over and most cops don't seem to care, at least in my area.
Elddir someone commented saying it was a 65 speed limit
You proved yourself right.
I was going well over 100 MPH in 4 lane traffic, after my radar picked up the KA shot, I merged in to the right lane to hide in traffic.
Sure enough the highway patrol came out and chased a car way in front of me and pulled him over which I assume was intended to be for me.
Lmao when the cop pulls over an old el camino that probably can't even break 100.
They must be giving cops all this equipment with little to no training.
Should have been using Lidar in that situation.

@@klausjeager1493 i dont think lidar is really effective, i believe by the time lidar picks up the signal, youve already been clocked

@@XrunescapeXgodX shut up nerd.
So youre one of those people😂
bad thing about that radar is that it dont tell u what car is speeding. and i know they dont. i was driving my 18 wheeler one day governed at 70 being its a company truck. speed limit on the road i was on? 70mph. had a car blow past me 90 miles and hour. cop flips a u turn car pulls over on shoulder i proceed. look in mirror and see the cops pulling me over. tells me i was doing 83mph. funny part the truck only tops out at 80. without governer.... so when i took that shit to court cop looked like a big dummy.
Radar will hit your truck due to the size. Unfair for truckers. Get blamed for others
Officer didn't know how to use the radar. MY unit has "fastest target" mode, so I can lock on a small car passing a semi as I know the semi isn't going that fast. Most departments are only out for revenue and you are SUPPOSED to be certified in the operation of radar. BUT, many cops DO lie just to write a ticket. Dash cams are your best bet to prove yourself.
90% of cops are dummies. In their defense their education stopped at age 17 or 18 so their mind is basically that of a teenager's.
Plus they undergo a lot of tests in order to even be accepted to an academy. Everyone acts like cops just walk into a police station and sign their name and are given a badge and a gun
um ya... a lot of police are ex military and considering they qualify for the GI bill most of them get a degree for a higher rank so those becoming police not only have practical educations but are also in shape due to military PT, you are just generalizing law enforcement to feed the general hatred the left has been spreading to increase anti police sentiment
Just some extra info, this is Sam Houston Tollway right before Westhiemer, the speed limit is 65, thus 83 would definitely be considered speeding.
I though it look familiar.
It's still kind of bs as he's not going significantly faster then traffic as people are going 77. It's just the flow. This is why cops have a bad wrap. People are scared just to drive rather then feel comfortable going around the same speed as others being safe
Bad Drivers of Houston Makes sense I was 95% this was Houston based on my knowledge of what they’re highways look like.
Bad Drivers of Houston no one goes 65 this cop was an asshole
And then the cop goes “did you know I had to go 120 mph to catch up to you” no shit Sherlock 🕵️♂️ you were fucking sitting there like a duck.. did you think you where going to catch up going 65mph even if I was doing that speed?? No
saw someone going 83, goes 100+ to catch him
YouMadeMeSubscribe he has the authority to.
+Abdi it shouldn't be like that, what kind of logic is that? " ohh shoot he going 83 putting people in danger, so better go 100 while merging to make sure everything safe." Come on now
that's why there are laws regarding seeing police officers - if there is a cop car with flashing lights and sirens... you stop and let him go.
there really shouldn't be much of any danger.
a car chase is a different story though, and those rarely happen nowadays for the logic of it's not safe
It's not black and white like that buddy... sit in a patrol car for a shift and you'll learn.
Yes sitting the patrol car all day and you will learn that yes even though you give tickets to people driving recklessly and talking on their cell phones because you have a badge you get to drive recklessly and talk on a cell phone with no consequence got to love cops protecting and serving one another
Its been over 5 years sense my last ticket, I'm not complaining by any means. However I wouldn't mind seeing more enforcement of turn signals and other things that impede traffic and less speed enforcement. I feel the roads would be safer if some people would start using their signals and traffic flow would be more likely to remain constant if this was used more. Anyways I appreciate the videos and showing insight! & Thank you for your service.
Doc G I agree. Also driving slow in the left lane or boxing lanes should be enforced. All that does is cause people to go crazy and do something stupid messing it all up for everyone involved.
Trey K yea going 45 in the left hand lane when the speed limits 70 is pretty dangerous. Someone coming up behind, going the speed limit often has to make some serious moves to get out of the way.
My bad, never saw a notification to reply and somehow stumbled on this video again. But totally agree, Cant believe I neglected to mention that in my original post. Left lane should only be used for passing. I believe most places in the US that is the law, however it seems to be under enforced for as much as it happens.
I’d also like to see law enforcement upholding their own laws and using their turn signals and not weaving in and out of traffic or using the breakdown lane in non emergencies. Goes both ways :)
AJ N law enforcement would like very very much to not weave in and out of lanes but the only possible conceivable way to stop that is to not have people in all these different lanes to weave between.
Law enforcement must travel faster than traffic or they are limited to only seeing the exact same people as they travel down the road.
When you get your motorcycle license they push very hard for you to travel 5 miles an hour faster than traffic regardless of what speed traffic is traveling weather is traveling over the speed limit or exactly speed limit motorcycle should travel 5 miles an hour faster than traffic so it's not to remain in people's blind spots. I've been pulled over many many times for weeving of course never convicted because you simply go to court and explain that you're doing what you're supposed to do and you couldn't be weaving unless they were becoming unnecessary obstacles.
This does not mean that you cannot be charged and convicted quite easily for such but my point is if you want the cops to not weave don't be in their way and that applies to any traffic. you don't want vehicles to weave around you don't be an obstacle for them to weave through.
I agree, cops should use their turn signals and should be charged when they're not but as far as weaving, that's our fault not theirs.
Slower traffic keep right.
Keep right except to pass.
Always travel faster than traffic to your right & always travel slower than traffic to your left.
this is and always has been the law and we need to obey it
And that's exactly why the new "Slowpoke" laws blame the obstacle not the speeder.
Thank you for this, explains why we typically see radar duty on empty expressways.... has always been a gripe of mine - enforced when it's not impacting public safety.
how does your head not explode listening to that for hours?
Most radars have a volume knob where it can be adjusted, it doesn't have to make the sound.
rather this than a spouse at home 😂😂😂JKJK
there head will explode like hyper nova some day
Interesting to see this from the officer point of view. Thank you for sharing.
I love running radar on the highway and I never get tired of the radar sound or the beautiful engine roar...
Buff
In MIchigan, we don't give a damn. Average speed on I-75 is around 90mph. If you want to stand on the passing line, 95mph at least. I was honked for "too slow" last week because i was 81mph.
CYSongMC I live in Michigan too! speed Limit is 55 and everyone goes 70
CYSongMC there it is 65 I think so driver was 18 over
Lmao no one gives a fuck! I can't believe how fast everyone go because the roads suck to.
Prince Duties especially on m-10
lol that's because nobody wants to be a cop in Detroit
Michael Scott has a very valid point about speeding vs. an actual crime with victims.
Actually, an officer does have to make the best guess as to which of those cars was doing 83MPH. No radar unit can selectively identify a single vehicle in a group. I was once targeted as doing 70 in a 45, crossing a highway overpass within 3 seconds of leaving a green light from a standstill. The 1985 Honda commuter bike I was riding does not have anywhere near that kind of acceleration, but the traffic passing under the overpass was doing 70-75 MPH. After researching the radar model used against me, I disclosed it's limited capabilities, and its field of vision capabilities, and, along with testimony of the officer to confirm all of those facts, the charges were dismissed. The radar does not lie, but it does not "lock" onto a target. The "radar lock", is actually an additional display which can freeze and save any speed being displayed on the "active" speed window. It does not lock onto your vehicle to identify your vehicle in a group of other vehicles. In the presence of even 1 other automobile, a motorcycle radar profile is virtually non-existent. A compact car on the far side of a crowd of 6-8 other larger vehicles is very likely not going to register at all, let alone show a steady signal on radar. The radar field of vision is fairly wide, as is shown by the range and rapid fluctuation of speeds on the radar display. It was also picking up and displaying the speed of vehicles to the extreme right of the police cruiser, which the officer would be trained to ignore, as those vehicles were obviously slower being on the entrance ramp. There are several videos on RUclips that illustrate "interpretive errors" much better than I have done here. Perhaps once you have been falsely accused of a victim-less crime, and face the prospect of a hefty fine and double-rate insurance fees, you may want to rethink about the abuse of technology you don't understand.
Lol I totally thought the speeding radar was somewhat more advance then this sputnik type shit....
So, how is it you determine which car it is? Theres no way I could tell until you pointed it out
If it in all radar systems, it redirected back to the computer or some crap
007K whoever is faster
+007K. Its through the officers training that determines which car it is. I cant speak for others but when I got my Radar/Lidar cert many many years ago I had to sit and observe vehicles in traffic and (1) identify vehicles "travelling faster then the posted speed limit" (that's what the citation is for) and (2) identify the vehicles speed within 2-3 mph. This is done WITHOUT using a Radar/Lidar gun (an instructor sits there WITH the equipment and confirms the speed). This training goes on for multiple days and I had to be 95 percent accurate within 2-3 mph before receiving my cert. It depends what state you are in and "vehicle code" you are cited for (their are 3 that cover "speeding" where I was from) for speeding. Radar/Lidar is simply a tool used to "confirm" an officers observation of a vehicle speeding. All of my ticket synopsis read: "I OBSERVED a (color, make of vehicle) travelling (direction, location) faster then the posted speed limit of (xx mph). I then CONFIRMED this on (Radar or Lidar) and stopped the vehicle......" and so on. Bottom line is that its determined through the officers observation.
motoxguy7 thats very interesting actually, thanks for the explanation! Btw, I too am a Moto X Fanboy :P
So if I drop a ball or coin in court and ask you to estimate the speed to prove your competency you will get it right? Bet you won't come close. Try it some time. I really don't see how "my training" is a good enough defense to uphold a speeding infraction. How can you say you confirmed anything on radar which by definition is measuring everything in its field of view which using simple math will tell you how many cars are being radiated (measured)? No offense, but this sounds like a lot of smoke and mirrors.
He sits their every day at 5 PM next to Westheimer waiting to ruin someone's day coming home from work.
Forgive me if this is a dumb question, but if multiple cars were going above the speed limit, how could one reliably prove in court that it was the fastest car simply from the radar?
Armorcrew99 . with photo radar though if another car is in the picture they cant give a ticket b/c they cant be sure which was speeding. So how could they prove which one was with this.
Armorcrew99 Thank you for the insight. I suppose if something like this ever went to (which would certainly be expensive, and a waste of time) they could reliably prove it with the dashcam video. But, without the video, it would be the officer's word against the driver's word.
"So how could they prove which one was with this.".......... Serious?? God help us.
They can’t prove it. You can deny it but in court it’s the cops word against yours, they can pull rank.
Yea, sure looks like it’s easy to fight.
Forget all the gangbangers and the dope dealers out there. Speeders are our number one enemy right now.
Michael Scott ALL people should follow ALL the rules. Doesn't matter what law it is. If you break it, you will be caught.
Michael Scott average citizens pay their tickets
Michael Scott Just because there are people that commit more serious crimes than speeding doesn't give anyone an excuse to break the law.
Michael Scott what else are you going to do? walk up to anyone wearing fubu and arrest them for suspicion? many traffic stops are how drug dealers and gang bangers are caught. WHAT!!!! NO WAY!!! I'm a little suprised that with your expertise, you didn't know that. I'm sure you just forgot. that was a reminder. there will be a test on this again next week so don't forget to study.
Different agencies do different things. This particular officer's duty is to enforce traffic laws, not crack down on drug dealers. The term "police" is extremely misleading since they do so many different things.
How can you tell where the radar is exactly? Do you set landmarks such as signs and stuff so when they pass by it, they cross the radar? I've always been curious.
This seems very inaccurate.
Angelo Pengue you should test it out
Angelo Pengue i assure you its accurate. However, if you wanna test it go ahead 😂
Angelo Pengue
The speed is accurate, the target however is anyone's guess lmao
At the angle he is at you can claim limited slip.. false reading by the radar
This would be an easy fight in court.
This actually makes me sick. a while back a cop supposidly clocked me at 65 in a 55 with radar behind another truck that was going faster than me. I couldnt do shut about it or fight it..
I love Highway Patrol Officers like this, leaving their radar on non-stop gives me plenty of time to get a signal from my radar detector and slow down. Thanks
You do know that some Highway Patrol cars have detectors, that detect if civilians have radar detectors...
Oʀʀɪɴ Bᴇsᴛᴇʀ I believe that technology such as that is likely available but you’re probably thinking of radar jammers.
Those things will jam the radar and make it inadmissible, but that doesn’t matter because to become a chp you must be able to estimate someone’s speed within a few percent mph.
Radar detectors aren’t illegal, im starting to think you might be assuming they are.
The detectors are becoming obsolete because more and more cops know how to play the game or just have doplar. I think that’s what it’s called; new radar very difficult to detect long distance.
slayNprey Nah I’m not thinking of radar jammers. Police here in Australia have a device in their highway patrol cars that beep of they come in radius of a car that has a radar/laser detector in/on their car. I’m pretty sure that only in Western Australian you can use them here, other states, massive fine for having them in/on your car 👍
Oʀʀɪɴ Bᴇsᴛᴇʀ oh wow that’s interesting, our radar detectors go off with multiple signal readings so most ppl here it beep because a trucker is using his cb radio or some signal in a Walmart 1000ft away sets it off.
I say this because maybe that’s a loophole that allows us to have them in our cars. I honestly don’t think most people realize how they work because you have to know the code that radar guns come up as.
Whenever my detector says “KA band” is when I slow down and laugh when I see a cop 1mi ahead who never turns his gun off.
slayNprey Yeah fair enough. Out BMW Highway Patrol cars here have awesome technology in them. And I reckon to they have technology in them the public doesn’t even know about yet 😜
Amazing how you're able to figure out which car is the one going 83MPH. I commend you on that.
Patrick Dow yeah very hard it's the guy going faster then the other cars but I'm sure it's easier to spot in person
what a stupid comment you have made thanks for that The Tool Guy
u mad
The Tool Guy you are actually quite mad as it seems. did you get kicked out of academy as a cadet?
The Tool Guy cadet is pre officer dumbass.
West Sam Houston Tollway looking South towards Westheimer, correct +Digital FTO ?
Seems like his guessing the car. There's too many cars around.
that's what I was thinking too how do they know what car it is...it would be cool if the radar detector would snap a picture of cars past a certain limit so you would know what car it was
Keep in mind the camera has one lens and I have two eyes. Stereo vision helps with depth and speed perception.
Definitely can see the burban making a lot of ground. Just count the seconds from the crack in the jersey barrier to the merge sign post to the car in front of him, few seconds different.
Radar definitely isn't exact, but "guessing" isn't exactly the word for it. There's some basic science and training involved in determining which vehicle is the offending one. I'm not even a police officer and I can pace cars pretty effectively just by looking at them. It's all basic math, really. Knowing about how far objects travel in a given amount of time allows you to roughly estimate speed.
Digital FTO k
is that beltway 8? 🤔
lol lol I feel like this is in Texas haha
Yea
Yeah Houston
Yep. Sam Houston Tollway entrance ramp between Briar Forest and Westheimer facing south.
Lmao, htown in the house!!!
This is exactly why I have the most expensive escort passport radar detector. Haven't gotten a ticket in 3 years since I bought it. I used to get pulled over all the time for stupid shit like 41 in a 35, or 51 in a 45, or 72 in a 65. Always just following the speed of traffic flow.
Ran the Valentine, Valentine w DSP, V1Gen1 and now V1Gen2. I have received 1 ticket in Alabama in 83' and 1 in 89' by THP. Driving for 46 years. Avg 10- 15 + over PSL only on interstate. Used CB during the 80's. Slowed down now but still not poking. Been stopped by Leo's 5 times total.
You should totally upload more of these kinds of videos
I have a question - as I love radar, lidar and how all that stuff works. I noticed (I believe) that you have your radar unit with both "oncoming" and "away" activated (I presume this from the two opposite-facing arrows). If that is the case, how do you know - when you have vehicles approaching and driving away, which speed of the two is being shown in the target window. I mean, in this particular setup, you're angled in such a way - plus the barrier - that maybe you know that ALL vehicles being shown in the target window are moving away, but let's imagine if you were positioned with both oncoming and away lanes in your direct view. Thanks.
+Pusheen Rules Thats a great point. If I was sitting in the center, then I would be getting both sides of traffic. That makes it much more difficult - if not impossible - to visually approximate, hear, and see the RADAR correctly.
I don't use my RADAR in this way because of this. We have a few units with directional capability, but that particular one does not.
In the UK no one follows the speed limit. Heck I once got pulled over for driving 20mph in a 20mph zone because I was apparently driving 'suspiciously slow'. The average speed people hit on the overtaking lane is 90+ mph. Only time ever you abide by the speed limit is when there's a speed camera or a hot spot for police scanners.
I feel like you caused more harm then good, jumping on like that.
He's a trained officer... I'm sure he knows what he's doing.
If no cops regulated speed it would all be the purge, what i get from your logic is we must all have toll gates every half mile so people cant speed or we shouldn't regulate speed at all? The cop knows what he is doing, and going 83 in a 65 is way above, so like bruhh
BendtFender28 the same trained officers that kill the wrong people and get sued because of it?
Panda Plays Minecraft you’re only broadcasting it on a certain number of officers, only .5-1% officers are actually corrupt, I recommend a RUclips channel by the name of “Donut Operator” because the fact the so many people think officers are the problem drive the nation backwards
BendtFender28 oh please! Il our drive most cops on the road been racing on road courses my who life I don’t care how “trained” u are! There is no way you can be in control in a uncontrolled environment! NASCAR drivers have accident on public roads and guess what I doubt this cop can drive anywhere near what a nascar driver could!
Is there an aiming point for the radar? If there were 2 cars...one going 70 and the other 79 can you pick up which one was going at 79?
Thanks for the video!
Is this the KA select version or the K band only version. I've got the same one just as an antique collectors item but I've only got the K band version. Mine can't do the select option.
Police department logic: to pull you over for going 83mph in a 65... I went 100mph weaving through lanes to catch you. then you had to pull over on a freeway with vehicles passing at 65-85mph only 4 feet away from your car door.
gilbert martinez Really guys?
Then don't go 83 mph in a 65. You are putting other people on the road in danger. Then while you are on the side of the road pulled over, and because of you the police and now you are in danger. How about do what you are suppose to do. Stop speeding and stop putting every one around you in danger.
Butch Byrd, speeding doesn't put people on the road in danger (see Autobahn). People driving slow in the left lane puts people in danger. The highway is all about flow of traffic.
College rejects? Most cops barely made it through high school or their GED. Now if you're talking state police, that's a different story as many states require a four year college degree just to apply for one of the few spots that open up.
So your solution is to do what? Not enforce any traffic laws? Fucking imbecile.
Ah yes. Law enforcement hard at it catching hard criminals.
Jr Samples wonder if you would be saying that if your family member was killed driving at an excessive speed?
@@justacommenter4361 10 mile difference...
@@Sora-o The speed limit on that highway is 65. The speed they're going is 83. That's almost 20mph above the posted speed limit. If that car were to lose control, the higher rates of speed would result in less capability of stopping it and more likely to crash and cause an accident.
@@talon_xi165 we’re not driving 1950 cars with drum brakes, we are driving modern cars that can brake from 100 mph in easily 300 feet
I don't know why I enjoyed this so much lol.
Is this the Sam Houston tollway on the west side? maybe Richmond/West park area?
That radar spread at 100 feet distance is 60ft in width. I'd crush you in a traffic stop; Source -I operate radars for a living.
If you've never spent any time behind a radar unit it's understandable that you find it difficult to figure out which vehicle matches the speed readings.
But once you've used the unit for a little bit it's really not that difficult.
What about it gets easier
The audio allows you to hear the Doppler shift and identify vehicles. If you hear a decreasing tone the target the unit is receiving is slowing. If you hear a rising tone, the target is accelerating. If a vehicle passes by and you instantly hear a tone change, it's likely the vehicle that just came into the path of the antenna horn. It's difficult to explained, but once you use the equipment for a while, you start to notice matches between the audio signal, and the traffic you are seeing.
Just a dumb question, how do you sit there with that irritating noise coming out of the radar unit
This definitely isn't in California you wouldn't get pulled over in a 65 unless you were going 88+
The Kleb 🤣life in the fast lane
uphold pubilc safety only for a cop to break a 100 to catch up and in a much heavier car just such a waste
Ravis Maximus yup just revenue chasing, aggressively use the shoulder and catch up to a guy doing 8-13 miles an hour over the speed limit wow!
Then don't break the law, don't speed and they wouldn't have to chase you down. They can't let people speed up and down the road without stopping them. If you dont like it, then change the law instead of complaining about it. People want to break the law and then criticize the police for catching them. Geez, dude really?
niga police 83 in a 65 is almost 20 over...
Thunderbyrd even police break the law and speed.... speeding tickets arent about the law, its about getting more money from the public
its. not a waste bcuz me and u tax payers pay for it all.
Just curious what those "faster" and "slower" indicators are for
Hats off for being able to stand that noise all day
Thank goodness he got the guy. What a maniac, looked like it almost got someone killed going that fast. We are all truly lucky that the officer caught up to him. What a hero!!!
How do you know exactly which car?
Tracking history including visual estimate, audio confirmation and experience doing this for many years.
Bcr3106
Did you write a ticket?
Bcr3106 But different driver.
If you've ever been pulled over and the cop asks, "Do you know how fast you were going?" Or "Do you know why I pulled you over?" Chances are he's verifying he has the right vehicle.
The best answer is, "No sir. Why did you pull me over?" Or "How fast did you say I was going?"
Be polite but don't admit guilt. :)
***** Bad advice that never works. If he lets you off with a warning its because he felt like it, not because you fessed up and felt bad ONLY because you were caught. If you actually felt bad about it, you would have made sure you werent speeding in the first place. Never admit guilt. The onus is on them to prove you're guilty. You can try and say "yeah I was going 7mph over, sorry...I didnt realize" just like the last 10 people before you said. Even 7mph over is a ticketable offense.
I just learned something. I was unaware that you could clock people from behind. Whenever I've been pulled over, it's been oncoming.
How do you know which one is which? Just curious

My first car was a '71 Fury, former Denver police car with a 440. LOVED to open up that carb. 9 miles to the gallon though. Ouch!
And how fast were you driving to catch that guy?
Are you a cop Digital, if so, is it legal in ohio to go 75 in a 70 mph highway?
iTheGeek No need to be rude to me. I was just asking a question, questions make people smarter. I have a dirtbike made for on-road also and I though motorcycles are allowed to go a little over due to the power they have. Please don't be rude to people, someone else might get upset if you said that to them.
No, it is not legal. Speed limits are the maximum speed permissible, meaning you can go below that speed but not over. Only exceptions being authorized emergency vehicles responding to a true emergency.
Digital FTO Ok, thanks.
+2016STIchannel thats a big fat lie. try doing 7 over with a connecticut plate in NY... not gonna fly on those highways. last trip to JFK i saw 4 CT drivers pulled over as soon as i crossed the line
Wrong. The speed limit sign indicates the maximum speed you can go in good driving conditions.
I'd like to know how fast the cop would have been going in order to catch up with the person speeding. In the end its just adding more danger to the road.
So was it the green SUV that appeared to be moving slower than everyone else, or the darker car in the left lane that hit their brakes after seeing you? the arrow points to the tahoe or whatever.
Wyoming, Utah, Nevada, Idaho, Montana and others all have 80mph freeway limits. No change on deaths. Imagine that, speed doesn't kill.
There's like 5 people in each of those states. There's no one to crash into lol.
LIDAR, no guessing, no questions.
+Joshua Henderson Yep. LIDAR is great for speed enforcement, and I find myself using it to measure distance more than you'd think.
No LIDAR (laser) in this vid.
That's a Ka 34.7 GHz Stalker stationary police radar.
Be safe.
I prefer to go 100+
Faisal7HTX me too ;)
Good video. Also reminds me that I have to be at work in a couple of hours...lol. Good thing it’s raining.
This wouldn't happend to be Highway 41 45 in Wauwatosa, WI??! Looks very familiar. Close to Mayfair Mall?
How do you know which car is speeding?
In this case, no legal way to.
ram07ish this was almost 20 over the limit and he saw a lot of 75’s and he let those go so he seemed reasonable
How many people did the law breaker kill before you caught up with him?
While doing well over 100MPH to catch him ;)
dont break the law and involve the officer then, stop making excuses for criminals
Alexx's Solo channel
The officer got himself involved. The speeder didn't invite the officer to speed.
Speed has never killed anyone.
Suddenly becoming stationary, thats what gets you.
sweet music to my ears.
This is why you use the free app "Waze" or buy the valentine 1 radar detector or the Escort 8500X50. It can save you an expensive ticket. Also speeding in the left lane is risky.
Ski4allday speeding at all is risky and should be punished more severely
Trevor Philips going to slow is a lot more dangerous
Armen V it's called go the speed limit. Not over it or under it
Eustace nope that is still speeding and can get you a ticket
Trevor Philips even going 65 on a 65 can be dangerous. Most people in California drive 80 this cop was just an asshole.
this confuses me I wouldn't able to pick witch car was speeding
which
How do you tell which car it is with a lot of traffic?
The speed limit in Fresno, California are about 65 mph, but people go from about 70 to 80.
some thing is wrong with your radar. how can you prove it was the SUV and no solid tone either. and he was in the slow Lane to add
He pointed at the black car in the fast lane and you can also see how fast that same car catches up to traffic ahead!
yeah videos like this are the reason why i fight and win all speeding tickets. with that many cars on the road. no way in hell you can be sure who was doing 80+ using pure judgement. you need evidence and no way to prove my car was the one being tracked at the time of the lock. i win :)
Thats exactly what i would argue
What song is it playing?
Couldn’t imagine listening to that tone for 8 hours a day.
Spped limits on highways is bullshit
Um somebody tell me how to actual fuck he(they) know witch car is witch when you got like 6-8 cars going by at once. ?
IllMatiK365 this is how you can beat a speeding ticket if you can show a reasonable doubt that he wasn't sure it was your car
Mostly training and time spent actually using the unit, when you're watching speeders for hours at a time everyday you can almost pinpoint someone's speed. Just experience and training.
It's seriously not that hard... you look at the radar, you see the radar jumps up to a high number (speeding), you look up, see which car is going the fastest and you go get them! When you see how fast the cars are going it's easy to determine which cars are going slower than others.
onlylikenerd it's hard. if it wasn't for that arrow, I'd never know which car it was.
Target acquisition and tracking history. You do enough of them, you don't need a radar to tell who is speeding and who is not. The radar is used to confirm the officers visual estimation by displaying the speed and the audible Doppler tone.
Question ..How do you know which car was going way over the speed limit?
Lucky guess
are you able to turn down the volume on that thing
Very confusing I hope whoever is given this device to issue tickets is well trained on how to spot the exact vehicle speeding.
+DasGutenFilth deezusOFnazerath Unfortunately, there are officers who do not know how to properly use a RADAR. That is why I encourage people to fight speeding tickets. I am more than happy to go to trial because I know when I write a citation it is correct. If I am unsure (which happens sometimes) I do not make the stop.
+Digital FTO How can you tell? What car was it in this clip?
+JetlinerX The one that ended up braking quite harshly on the left.
:52 oh no, you didn't have your seatbelt on.
Thats the only law cops dont have to abide by, Cops Firefighters And EMT's Dont have to wear there seat belt because they have to get out of there vehicle fast.
I can assure you I had my seat belt on. I never drive without it. Not because its a law, but because I've seen too many dead bodies from traffic crashes where they would've been alive if they were wearing their belt.
+aquatrax123 In Mississippi if you die in a line of duty car crash as a firefighter and you don't have your belt on the state doesn't pay the usual death benefits.
No seat belt, phone in hand while driving, no problem
What speed did you get to catch that speeder? The car broke traction to upon leaving the shoulder you were on the gas so hard. Was this type of intercept really needed here?
In your state it looks like you leave the radar on full time. In my state they leave it off but only turn it on if they suspect speeding. Do you think this is a rule they have to follow, or a tactic to avoid setting off radar detectors?
Just a tactic, some cops will use an actual radar gun to avoid setting off detectors, since it's one-touch operation and doesn't give radar detectors enough warning before it activates. Most have graduated to LIDAR guns that give no warning, are accurate to extreme ranges and can target specific cars with ease. Those are usually employed on speed traps on highway overpasses, with a line of cruisers on the on-ramp ready to go after speeders.

Never call 911 ever again
Just highway robbery..........Serve and protect......right.....highway pirates...........
Wayne Evans Why.......... do........... you............. type.............. like............ this...........? You do realize that’s not how normal people type.
Wayne Evans they only do what they’re told to do, stupid
yes it's definitely highway robbery when you get a fine for going 18 MPH over the speed limit, i mean, oh my god they're pirates for ughh........................................................ uhhhjj............................................... ydfyfyugyfhugfuhgfuh................... making the highways safer for everyone
@Dylan Sterling Unless you're William Shatner.
dfhowes Fair enough.
How do you know which car was going at that speed with so many cars around you?
i love how i knew this was houston before i looked at anything.
It could of been 2 cars. You went after the wrong one it looks like.
504Productions they just go whoever is faster so they could lock in 83 on car next to you even though you were going 85 but you will probably be chased because you were the fastest
Zach Mondial oh
Wow, you must a police expert. Pretty cool knowing more about a cops job than they do, huh?
that sound alone would make me blow my brains out.
Try and pop me with my radar detector/jammer setup. I win EVERY time
+White Nigma He was using radar.......
Pratik Patel I can see that.
Laser Jammers don't work with radar.... Radar jammers are highly illegal
Pratik Patel Yes, I am aware. My radar detector will let me know beforehand. I don't need a radar jammer.
Please read my comment and your original post. Your original post says "Try that with my jammers...I win every time." That statement is referring to your laser jammers that you have on your car, which do not protect you from radar. Again, radar jammers are Highly illegal, not laser jammers, which are only illegal in some states, but using them wisely is good enough. Radar jamming is a lot different than laser.
0:52 I love the sound of that V8 when he punches it. Gotta love those Caprices. You can’t get a sound like that on an Explorer...
That’s fake sound effects added to make it seem like he was an actual cop the whole time. This was not a cop.
Driver goes 83 mph, cop must go faster than that to catch and extort money from them.
Either don’t speed or get a radar detector if you’re gonna. Don’t be mad if you get caught lol
What was the victims name? Now let's see the cop go over 100mph to catch up.
It's NOT about "safety" when the cop has to go 20mph faster to catch up to the DANGEROUS SPEEDER.
It's ALL about $$$$$$
richarcm The cop has something called emergency lights
richarcm They obviously have to use more speed to catch a speeding individual, or how do yoy think they would pull them over? by magic?
The victim? Society. Laws are in place for the benefit of society as a whole. Speed limits are part of road safety. How else should speeders be caught? Some states use speed cameras and mail citations.
+Not saying Not saying you're justifying if I placed flashing lights on my car I could speed whenever I want
+The Tool Guy -- well I probably wouldn't hear it considering you likely drive a Prius or some other commuterbox. It would sound something like "..........." (:
PS. Someone driving down a street going 100MPH would mean you would likely only hear a noise (of a loud car) for only .... what ... 2 or 3 seconds? That must be a life-destroying experience for sure.
Wow being locked at 77 is pretty reasonable. This cop lets ppl speed.
Nasty FingurZ ikr this place is a 65 zone and his letting ppl go even if they are 12 over he seemed very reasonable
How does that radar work? I thought the subjects had to be coming towards the radar for the Doppler effect to be accurate?
No, you can observe the effect on an approaching or receding object (as in a car). A receding object still changes the frequency the radar gun is shooting off.
if the vehicle that is doing the radar is stationary, it can radar both directions
I think the major reasoning for it was as you could see, the car was slowing down as it got detected. Going from 84, down to 83, and his mannerisms showed he was slowing down to 84, meaning he was probably doing more than 85mph, which is why he got pulled over. If your doing a few miles per hour faster than the flow it’s not significant, but when your going 10 over the flow of traffic, odds are you will get pulled over. This is coming from a police officer.
The key thing to remember here is the LEO has to articulate how he assessed your speed visually first. The radar is meant to verify their assessment. Your assessment can stand on its own as "to fast for conditions" or "reckless driving" if bad enough. The radar can not stand on it's own. You are using radar to pick out speeders and then you're trying to assess who the speeder is afterwards. As traffic is moving away from you and there are many vehicles it is very difficult to almost impossible to assess a vehicle speed visually. With this video I would have beat you in court because you are using radar improperly. You are sitting on the road letting the radar do the work. That is the complete opposite of the training you received and is lazy policing. Get out in traffic and visually observe traffic patterns to identify aggressive driving and distracted driving. Those are the real causes of auto wrecks so if your mission is to keep people safe prove it. If your mission is to generate revenue you're nailing it.
With this piece of trash there is no way to tell which one was going 83.
