Explanation
You are approaching a radar unit concealed by
a
hill
or
an obstructed curve.
A patrol car
is
traveling infront
of
you
with
a
radar source aimed forward. Because signals
are sometimes reflected off
of
large objects
and
sometimes not,
the
alerts may seem
inconsistent.
Apatrol car
is
approaching from the
other
direction, sampling traffic
with
instant-on
radar. Such alerts should
be
taken seriously.
You are driving through
an
area populated
with
radar motion sensors (door openers,
burglar alarms, etc.). Since these transmitters
are usually contained inside buildings
or
aimed
toward OR awayfrom you, they are typically
not
as strong
or
lasting as a real radar
encounter.
CAUTION:
Since the characteristics
of
these
alerts may
be
similar
to
some
of
the
preceding
examples, overconfidence in
an
unfamiliar
area can
be
dangerous. likewise,
if
an
alert in
a commonlytraveled area is suddenly stronger
or
on
a different band than usual, speed radar
may
be
set
up
nearby.
