Talivans - Madcop a question please.

[Boosted LS1]

Madcop, in days gone by I thought that law enforcers had to believe a vehicle was speeding before they could raise a speed detector to eye level and take a reading. Then the observation was held for say 3 seconds and a reading taken. After that you would be invited to stop if speeding.

Nowadays talivans seem to be glued to the eyepiece, continually monitoring traffic, ie there is no prior suspicion that an offence may be occurring.

Do you know what the correct procedure is concerning the method of operation of detection equipment like pro-laser and talivan tooling?

Oh and if I break down in front of a talivan for a short while can he see through my raised bonnet, he he?

Thanks.

Oh, I see a similar thread where this issue is being addressed. Can we complain to the police or council about incorrect use of this equipment. I see them misusing it all the time.
