RE: LEo question
I'm a cop in NJ and yes, radar can work when a vehicle is coming at you or away from you even while driving. Since you were stopped for 70, and only issued a summons for 50, you got a big break. If you were to fight the summons and go to court, the officer most likely would not drop it down any further and tell you to either pay it or go to trial. In all my years in LE, i've yet to see a cop lose a radar case.

RE: LEo question
Yeah it's called moving RADAR or LASER, works a little different than if it were stationary. But the result is the same. If the speed device is properly maintained, it is very seldom wrong in your speed, and usually not more than 1 -2 MPH.
