Neighborhood safety is in the hands of the entire community, and one police department is supplying the radar guns so that locals can take charge. We all know that the sight of a radar gun along a highway or street will cause drivers to tap their brakes. Law enforcement officials are trying to have speed radar guns everywhere possible, even if the manpower cannot be present.
Police radar guns will be wielded by trained senior citizens in Frankfort, Illinois for their Seniors on Patrol volunteer program. The five-week long course introduces topics such as parking lot monitoring, speed enforcement with a radar gun, first aid, and police officer etiquette. On the beat, seniors have a laser radar gun and can write down the licenses, car make and model, and description of offenders. They are, however, not permitted to approach a speeder.
Many seniors have plenty of time on their hands, and are very enthusiastic and eager to give back to the communities that they have helped raise over the years. Radar guns are instrumental in keeping their small roads safe from speeders, and OpticsPlanet carries the radar gun that can protect yours. We carry Bushnell radar guns and other sports radar guns just a mouse click away.
