mobile speed cameras question

[simoo]

How radar speed cameras work: An ultra-high frequency microwave beam (slant radar) is transmitted at an angle to the traffic flow. When the beam reflects off a moving object, its frequency is "shifted" slightly, enabling speed to be calculated. Radar speed cameras can be set in "towards" or "away" modes. When a vehicle passes through the radar beam above a preset speed (usually several kph above the sign-posted limit), the front or rear license plate is photographed. On roads where their is no median, both directions of traffic can be monitored at the same time.

it was a speed camera mounted on a holden on side of the road

was it the RTA or cops, cops dont take pictures, they have to pull you over.

They call it a scientific instrument, so you cant question its validity in a court of law..............

Even with a median strip they can get you, they are ( or at least we're when I was shown over one in operation ) selectable for monitoring either 4 or 6 lanes. 6 lane mode is used when there are 4 lanes and a median strip. They operate in both directions simultaneously.

Road side speed cameras can shoot in both directions - TRUE. If set up to do so at that site

found that out yesterday after having a research about some laws.
so thats a yes answer.
