A difficult choice for a police department to make is where to allocate officers to monitor traffic speeders. Ideally they need to be placed in areas with a high instance of speeding or places where speeding trends are moving upwards.

The resources of a police department are finite and cops can't be everywhere at all times so it can be difficult to find out this information. So what is a resource stretched police department to do?

A traffic radar speed trailer may the solution their looking for.

Recently a Police Department in Utah got their hands on a traffic radar trailer. They placed it in areas where they were getting increasing reports of wreckless driving. The trailer allowed them to track traffic and store the data. The data was later analyzed and the department discovered where it was best to send their officers to catch wreckless drivers. Once they placed the officers in key locations, instances of speeding steadily decreased.

The police department in question paid too much for their trailer, though the Federal Government picked up the tab. We have an affordable solution for police departments without deep pockets.
