speed monitored by aircraft
My friend in fl got pulled for a 95 in a 70 - an aircraft clocked her speed, and then a chase car nailed her. I was wondering, what is the accuracy of the aircraft's equipment to determine your speed?

my stepdad got pulled on 66 with that
from what im aware of those white lines on the road are used to time you and then determine your speed
these ar ethe ones that get you if your 120+

its a simple equation to determine it D=r/t where distance is the distance between the white lines and they clock how long it takes for you to go between lines and you rolve for R and it gives you how fast you was going but you have to convert and stuff but thats a a brief of how it all goes down

FL has been using aircraft ever since I can remember...(early 80's)
I have yet to see the system in action here in VA. Only on tv. They had a special on the local news right after the signs started popping up.

The radar they use in that has an accuracy around 2-3% which is good for knocking a few MPH off depending on your speed.
Since it only calculates your average speed (how long it takes to travel a distance) if you enter the point where they start measuring going way over the speed limit but drop to way below it before they stop measuring for all intensive purposes you'll be doing the speed limit
