Word has it a new device is being used by CHP.
What's the word LEO's?

Does it really matter. If the aircraft gets you using the mile markers, you still can't beat Motorola...
Is this a real thing though? Wondering how one of these would do in court also

When you see that sign "speed controlled by aircraft" and you get popped without seeing the patrol car, you will have figured it out the hard way.Is this a real thing though? Wondering how one of these would do in court also

I haven't needed to wonder about that for over 40 yrs..actually never really wondered, it is common knowledge.PS if you have ever wondered why the white line breaks at every mile marker in the middle of the desert... Or a horizontal line /number one the asphalt... Think of that for second or two. It only takes a stopwatch to figure out your speed...

See them working the I-15 south of Barstow regularly but that’s about the only place. Usually 5-6 patrol cars pulling over what the plane is reporting.

I always used to not pay attention to K band on the AZ 40 but they still use it as of last week. Usually it's another car that sets off k bandSo, in my area a K warning on the detector typically means a stationary speed sign ahead, a KA warning is an actual LEO vehicle with active radar and the laser warning really almost never goes off. However, the last couple of weeks or so, the laser has been going off quite a bit yet, I never see anything.
We have a lot of CHP about in my general area. Think this might be the reason?
Ha, I’m a recipient of one of the ‘gotcha with aircraft buddy’ tickets in this corridor! Been a few years, but I remember being genuinely surprised when CHP rolls onto the on-ramp and chased me down (I’d been driving in my mirrors for some time).
I’ve noticed a huge upswing in CHP’s out on the highways now that Covid is making an exit. I’m sure Fuhrer Newsome has given orders to start making up for all the tickets they haven’t issued the last 12 months.
Looks like CHP is back collecting taxes
it does set it offI have 2 detectors and on 1 in the Amazon comments someone mentioned car radar can set them off. Don’t know if it’s true or not. The radar used for adaptive cruise control. Lane assist.
Now if the CHP would just start nailing all the semis driving in the number 1 and number 2 lanes.....
Detector detectors what a crack up
I don't use detectors, just my common sense & intuition. Ain't no checkered flag waiting for me at the end of the drive.They exist. Take your radar detector to Virginia. It won't be as funny there.
CB Handel was "Smiling Jack the eye in the sky"I have not seen an airplane in years near the 40. Ever since the lone CHP pilot had a heart attack or something and crashed YEARS ago... like 12 or more..
Anyone else see a plane recently?
True... lol... i spent a bit of time on Oahu helping a family member. At first it drove me crazy, but after adjusting to Hawaii time it was all good.Haha we don’t worry in the islands. Rule of thumb here is 5 under the posted speed limit.
simple,dont drive like a gashole ! 5 miles over is fine.you get stopped for a ticket and i will beat you to the river anyway without ruining the day.
No problem with people driving slow. Just move to the right lol.simple,dont drive like a gashole ! 5 miles over is fine.you get stopped for a ticket and i will beat you to the river anyway without ruining the day.
With the highest gas taxes in the nation you would think our state highways would be of Autobahn quality, but with the priority being given to the illegals (not even citizens of this country), and services provided for them before everything else, you can see how the roads are in such disrepair.Ok, can’t blame them. You need a trophy race truck to ride in the right two lanes.

Enjoy driving 5 over. Or 5 under of whatever lah-de-dah speed you drive. Just keep to the right so I and 70% of the others on the road don't have to brake because you're playing pokey in the fast lane
There is no fast lane bozo. It’s a passing lane. I don’t care if your going Mach 2. Get your ass in the right after you pass
i just made the drive from Barstow to the river. Got two separate hits of KA band. Both times CHP was there.So lets get back to the point of the topic
Does CHP use a new frequency radar gun, that is not covered in the typical X, K, Ka, or super wideband KA frequencies, dont really care about laser as its pointless for a detector because if you get a hit on the source you are already fucked for a speeding ticket
Rice road ...... boom problem solved.i just made the drive from Barstow to the river. Got two separate hits of KA band. Both times CHP was there.
