Cute...add to that...bring in couple highschool binders from the old days, don't even open them (as it's just the old geography and art class notes anyway)

The diagram still does not relate properly. I must be missing something in the description....all of a sudden we go from vehicles to a plate?
If it is to mean two targets at the same time....the lidar will not compute that and gives the operator an error.

yep! We have had 2 decisions come through our internal email at work, but not those ones.

Only two words that I read

On CanLLII site .... I have found recent cases I want to read, but they were all in french? Does anyone know how to flip the case over to english. I tried the english/french things at top, but did not work.

thanks

You can still see that it is difficult to target the plate..... And like you said you can't see the beam even under alignment checks. The officer still does not know "exactly" where the beam is.......at a distance of 500 meters 1 degree is a lot, even 0.5 degrees of misalignment will cause this situation.

I still do not see it when the beam is ...

I'll vote for upping it to six, because this really is dangerous behaviour. Way worse than, say, "speeding" at 130k with the flow of traffic on a 400-series highway

Q. What happened?
A. Not sure, I was just going with the flow of traffic
Q. Why?
A. Well they all did it, it was the right thing to do!

He's a little upset that the officer would do something like that knowing the integrity of his nephews and niece.

Understandably so!

Her cousins have told her that normally officers including them, don't pull cars over if they are going with the flow of traffic on the hwy and the flow of traffic does not exceed exceed 25km in a 400 series hwy ...

An officer traveling the opposite direction spotted her and decided to turn around and follow her slowing down to 90.

Moving radar opposite mode. The officer turned around and she SLOWED down to 90. So what was the speed prior to her slowing? 99% of people see the cruiser, start braking (instinct) and then look at their speedometer...way too ...

Police do not have to show the radar/lidar to the person that is stopped. This is for a couple reasons.

With moving radar the unit is sitting in front of the police officer in front of the steering wheel (square box). To one side of this box will be a round shape (the antenna). This could be seen while sitting in the drivers seat of the offending ...

maybe a mod can spilt this over to the law enforcement tools area... somewhere above this....
*************************************

seeing that a lane is 3.75m wide a typical car is 2.6m wide.......beam width is still less than the width of the car.

At 500m beam is 1.5m wide. One at 570m...round it to even 1.8m for simplicity sake.

Your "blocks ...

Demerit points for the offence won't be on the ticket. If you do not respond to the ticket, you will be deemed not to dispute it, and a conviction will automatically be entered against you. Not to mention your licence will get suspended for failing to tpay the ticket, then you will have $150 reinstatement fee, your insurance won't cover you in a ...

but won't know if it's smoggy

Bookm is right, Michigan highways suck. That said, the fatality and accident rate fell on their roads when they raised the speed limits on the Interstates. They didn't raise them to a crazy-high number, but rather to what was reasonable for most Michigan drivers.

Do MSP vigorously enforce the speed at the limit? Then drivers actually pay ...
