in todays news i heard that police have to stop using VASCAR speed detectors and if youve been caught by one in the last 3-4 years you may be able to get it overturned

Is this the same system that cops use for following a car and using 2 random markers for both the car and the cop car?

Ie, car passes first marker feature (press)
cop passes first marker feature (press)
car passes second marker feature (press)
cop passes second marker feature (press),

Therefore the computer works out the distance between markers from the cop car info (calibrated speedo input and time) and then works out your car speed by using your time interval with this calculated distance measurement?

This is the system method that 'did' me on M18 in Oct 2007.
