Speed Trapper

In the last ten years, police have installed speed trap units on many busy roads. These
contain a radar set, a microprocessor and a camera equipped with a flash. The radar sends
out a beam of radio waves at a frequency of 24 gigahertz. This is equivalent to a wavelength
1.25 cms.

If a car is moving toward the radar, the reflected signal will bounce back with a slightly
smaller wavelength. If away from the radar, the waves will reflect with a slightly longer
wavelength. The microprocessor within the unit measures the difference in wavelength
between outgoing and returning signals and calculate the speed of each vehicle. If it is above
the speed pre-set by the police, the camera takes the picture of the vehicle. The information is
stored on a smart card for transfer to the police computer. The owner of the vehicle can then
be traced using the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Centre database.

Some drivers have now got used to these traps. They slow down when they approach one
to ensure that the camera is not triggered. They speed up again as soon as they have
passed. This is known as ‘surfing’

One way of outwitting such motorists is a new computerized system. This consists of two
units equipped with digital cameras positioned at a measured distance apart. The first unit
records the time each vehicle pases it and identifies each vehicle by its number plates using
optical character recognition software. This information is relayed to the second unit which
repeats the exercise. The microprocessor within the second unit then calculates the time
taken by each vehicle to travel between the units. The registration numbers of those vehicles
 exceeding the speed limit are relayed to police headquarters where a computer matches each
vehicle with the DVLC database. Using mailmerge a standard letter is then printed off
adressed to the vehicle owner.
