This is not a radar gun. It's a LIDAR gun which does not need to be calibrated as often. Generally, it's recommended to calibrate a LiDAR gun at least once a year. Radar on the other hand. You are correct, they need to be calibrated often otherwise they give false reading.

[@davidb556]

​@@HorribleProgram-ew6ei Radar: Radar is a technology that helps us find and track things by sending out radio waves and listening for their echoes. Power Dissipation: When you turn it on, the light spreads out and becomes weaker the farther you are from it. Radar waves work the same way; they become weaker as they travel away from the radar. Antenna: It talks by sending out radio waves and listens for the echoes. In this case, let's pretend the radar sends out waves equally in all directions. 1/4π (One-Quarter Pi): This is a number we use in radar math to figure out how the radar waves spread out in the air. It helps us understand how the strength of the waves decreases as they go farther away from the radar. LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging): LiDAR uses laser beams (light) to measure distances. It measures the time it takes for laser pulses to bounce off objects and return to the sensor. Radar (Radio Detection and Ranging): Radar, on the other hand, uses radio waves to detect and locate objects. It sends out radio waves and listens for their echoes to determine the distance, speed, and direction of objects. Yes. you are an idiot. Once again, LIDAR IS NOT RADAR. Lidar has a highly accurate reading that does not need to be calibrated as often as radar. KEEEEEEEP REACHING LITTLE KID.

No need. Ticket the slow cars and you’ll see an average 20km increase in traffic

[@hightiernub1313]

@@thunderbirdizations I literally believe that speed limits should be increased, especially in the suburbs and rural areas of Canada. Imagine traveling from Toronto to Windsor at 100km. Literally no traffic happens in those roads and having a no speed limit road or a faster speed limit will decrease travel times greatly. What baffles me is how Canada being one of the most biggest countries in the world doesn't have a proper freeway with highspeeds. It's ironic how in Europe or especially Germany they have an Autobahn with no speed limit. Why can't the 407 have no speed limit? It would be worth paying a hefty toll to travel fast compared to other highways. At least make the 407 speed limit 200kph instead of 100. Also the notion that increasing speed limits will increase risk of collisions is a myth. In fact like you said, its because of slower drivers or drivers with impaired ability that cause it. It's not the car that causes collisions but us.

[@thunderbirdizations]

@@hightiernub1313 mostly agreed, we won’t see 200kmh in a snow-zone though. Higher speeds cause less accidents, but severity significantly increases. For me, in a high-density area, traffic’s caused by dumbasses either driving too slow in the wrong lanes, or drivers swerving through traffic, b/c they think they’re racers, and they end up causing mayhem infront & behind them

[@hightiernub1313]

@thunderbirdizations In the Autobahn they have speed restricted zones so in Canada for example they can use those digital signs to impose a speed limit during snow seasons.

[@thunderbirdizations]

@@hightiernub1313 makes sense but Canadian weather is volatile; might be sunny in the morning, and a blizzard might hit by lunch. If you get into an accident in a blizzard because you lost control at 200kmh, who owns the accountability? The driver, the car manufacturer (therefore limiting car imports and increasing tariffs), municipal gov’ts for not updating speed restrictions in time (to do so would require more rss and taxes)? One big benefit to your point though, construction plays a major role in traffic. We don’t see construction in adverse weather and therefore there is less traffic even at lower speeds

[@LULU_XCIV]

Moronic response. So if you’re in of help, are you going bitch about why they got to you so slow? Plus they have offensive and defensive training to be legally allowed to drive at those speeds.

[@themetalfusionologist]

@@LULU_XCIV I’m not “bitching” about their response time to an accident, injury or serious crime that’s taking place. But I am bitching about the fact that these so called “trained” drivers will literally put innocent people in danger traveling high rates of speed to catch someone moving at a less dangerous speed…just to give them a TICKET for doing the same damn thing. If they’re chasing down a murder or responding to something serious, by all means, floor it.. But to just hand out a hypocritical ticket is wreck less and could cause far more harm if something happens in a matter of milliseconds. Also, your argument that they’re “trained” is absurd. The training law enforcement gets for these scenarios is very sub par and most forget all of it when they’re adrenaline gets going and that blue light/siren hard-on happens. Before you argue I don’t know what I’m talking about, I have several close family members and friends that have had this so-called “driver training”. I’ve also witnessed the program personally. How can I judge the training? I may or may not have also went through the instruction part personally. I also could be a highly experienced driver myself 🤷🏼‍♂️ Hell, I may even have multiple licenses from different road & drag racing associations 🤷🏼‍♂️ or I may not.. Either way, if I did happen to have far better experience driving than any law enforcement, would that also be a license for me drive at high rates of speed to tell someone else to slow down? Please explain how their few hours of seat time dodging cones (where most fail) at low speed qualifies them to travel at excessive speed for anything less than an urgent emergency? Before you respond be sure to look up exactly what their specific training entails, because high speed driving in traffic is not part of their curriculum. But again, if I were to MAYBE have logged hundreds or thousands of hours behind the wheel of a car at speeds over 120-150 mph, in heavy traffic, on actual road courses, plus years of driver training…please also explain why I can’t do so as well? I’ll wait.

[@LULU_XCIV]

Skill issues... Anyways, that's why they have lights and sirens, and communication with other officers within the area. As a regular driver its your duty to pay attention to your mirrors and surroundings. The speeder still has a higher potential of causing a crash without any indicators, compared to a vehicle with flashing lights, sirens, and a horn. The same concept when an ambulance has to drive down the highway for an emergency. The fact you didn't include those factors in, makes me judge the authenticity of your story. Also using MPH has your speed reference tells me you're American. So why are you replying to a Canadian news about a Canadian police force? Plus 150 mph is 241 Kmh, and 120 mph is 193.12 kmh. At the end of the day the guy is committing a crime. Which at that speed is considered stunt driving, that leads to impounding of the car, and a revoked license. At that speed, a regular civilian has a higher chance of causing a fatality compared to a trained driver. if you cant drive like that from your racing days, sounds like a skill issues. @@themetalfusionologist

Thank you officers for keeping us safe from others and from ourselves. I was charged with stunt driving and lost my license for 30 days, car was impounded for 14 days and fines and lawyers fees and impound fee. It really sucked but I would shake hands and thank the officer that pulled me over. The reason is that he likely saved my life and anyone else’s that may have been in the car when I inevitably would have crashed. Not long later a friend of mine from high school died in a car crash and I really woke up and smelled the coffee. I thank the Lord Jesus Christ that I was pulled over. I don’t speed anymore and I have no interest in doing so anymore. God bless the good hearted police officers❤️

[@saltycanadian6190]

His car is an awd pursuit model with a 5.7 hemi. The car weighs 6000lbs, and has traction control. He’s also a police officer who’s passed skid pad training, along with pursuit training. You with out a doubt are the driver on the road who drives 15kmh under the speed limit in the left hand lane. Barely accelerate from stop lights, and then get pissed off when people honk at you for creating traffic. You can’t handle the car, it doesn’t mean others can’t. It’s perfectly legally to accelerate to the speed limit as fast as you want. As long as you have control of your vehicle, and aren’t putting others in danger by going the speed limit. Probably also the type of person to freak out and scream at someone because their cars exhaust is loud. We’ll learn volumetric efficiency, and learn why you don’t want to have any restrictions on your exhaust. Uneducated societal reject.

You guys should also pull people over for driving too slow, and actually enforce the left lane traffic laws. Also raise the speed limit to 120 max and 100 minimum. Our highways are perfectly safe at 120, and less safe when some jackass is going 80, or even worse, 50 on the on ramp merging into traffic.

The summer b4 covid I drove an F150 with cargo trailer behind from Alberta to Toronto. An hour or so outside Toronto signs said to slow down to 80kph b/c of construction. I went 140kph thru that 80kph zone, and was getting horns from everyone else as they passed me on both sides doing about 160kph(+). They were even passing a cop going back and forth across the lanes with his cherries flashing as he tried to slow traffic. The cop gave up and pulled over, 8 lanes of traffic going the same direction at 160kph(+) is too much for one cop to deal with... they definitely drive a lot faster in Ont than Ab, but they also let others into their lane when they see a signal light. In Ab, a signal light makes everyone close any gaps, keeping others from changing lanes...
