That is the most fucking stupid thing ever… I bet the cost of fuel alone dwarfs the amount of tickets they will give by doing that. And what if you’re not goin a constant speed? 3/10ths of a mile is kinda long to time someone and the error is tremendous. ---

> [@slvrcav](#): > > he may be wrong but he is the one using this stuff. Thats what I was referring to. I’ve never used VASCAR so I don’t know how it’s setup… just hope if I get caught speeding its done properly… (or improperly if I wanna avoid the ticket I guess) ---

And what if you’re not goin a constant speed? 3/10ths of a mile is kinda long to time someone and the error is tremendous. again plz do the math, it pretty basic. vascar over long distances is EXTREMELY accurate. ---

> [@thefranchise](#): > > again plz do the math, it pretty basic. vascar over long distances is EXTREMELY accurate. x2. let’s say two cops time the same car, over the same distance, with different reaction speed: Cop A is one cokeheaded motherfucker. He’s strung out on blow and trigger happy. He’s so quick on the button, that he times the car early, and gets a reading of 20 seconds over the 3/10 mile. Cop B is a lazy bastard. As he’s dipping his doughnut in his coffee, he sees the car, and presses the button late. He gets 18 seconds over the same 3/10 mile. The car actually did the 3/10 of a mile in 19 seconds. d=rt (distance = rate x time) so… The car is doing 57mph Cop A thinks it’s doing 54mph Cop B thinks it’s doing 60mph and that’s a whole 2 second difference between the two cops. Reaction times would very rarely be that far off. ---

> [@slvrcav](#): > > only reason you didn’t get any points is because you are not a resident to that state, also i dont think it goes on your record either. same reason i didnt get any points for speeding down ocean city. Let me guess, Route 50, within 5 miles of Ocean City… :kekegay: Biggest speed trap ever. Flat, straight, perfectly groomed road. The cops LOVE it when the streetbike groups come down and try to blow past everyone doin like 140. Ive seen it happen at least 5 times. They fly past, and no more than 10 minutes later you see 8 cop cars and a whole shitload of bikers all pulled over on the side. 🤣 ---
