Capture the actual speed of a driver

You would have understood it, the idea here is to capture the true speed of the driver by installing several radars at the same place. It is therefore possible to see two or even three radars for the same section.

That said, captured speed by the speed cameras is not the real speed of the vehicle. There is something called: the margin of error.

Depending on the country and the speed, this is more or less 5km/h. Which means that on a limited road at 50 km/hyou will only be fined if you exceed the margin of error.
